A man kicked his neighbour in the head after he was confronted about firing fireworks at people's homes on New Year's Eve. Niall Fisher, 24, was celebrating with his girlfriend by letting off fireworks with ‘irresponsibility’, a judge said.
Two neighbours were out in their gardens with their children letting the New Year in, when a firework narrowly avoided hitting the victim’s daughter. They became aware of other fireworks hitting walls on neighbouring houses and ‘exploding’.
The two men, including the victim, went in search of those responsible with the intention of asking them to stop when they came across Fisher and his partner.
