A drunken lout was kicked out of a Jarrow pub after brandishing a pizza cutter before going on to cause damage to the front door.
Christopher Hillock was ejected from the Ben Lomond pub on Grange Road West after he was seen by customers waving around a pizza cutter and swearing. The 36-year-old, who'd drank a "significant amount" of booze was then "disarmed" by another patron before he was kicked out of the bar.
After being locked out of the premises, Hillock then went on to punch and kick the bar's front door, causing around £200 worth of damage before finally being arrested. He was jailed after appearing at Newcastle's Moot Hall on Monday to be be sentenced for criminal damage and possession of an offensive weapon.
