A man has been jailed after getting into a fight in a JD Sports store full of Christmas shoppers - alongside his machete-wielding pal.
Mark Rigg was in the queue to pay at the Manchester Fort branch, in Cheetham Hill, with his friend Rhys Jackson, when they were approached by another group of men. A fight broke out between the two groups and Jackson, then aged 18, of Aldbourne Close, Collyhurst, pulled out a machete from his trousers.
Rigg, then aged 19, of no fixed address, was seen on CCTV 'grappling and throwing punches', prosecution barrister James Preece told Manchester Crown Court. He was then escorted out of the shop by security.
