A Bolton man headbutted his ex-girlfriend in the street after she refused to get back with him. When Lee Jackson was eventually taken back by his victim just months later, he put his hands around her throat during an argument.
Jackson and the woman initially got into a relationship in July 2020, Bolton Crown Court was told. In January 2022, after splitting up, Jackson saw the woman near his home.
He approached her and asked if they could reconcile but she refused. Jackson, 52, then headbutted her in the nose, causing it to bleed, before running away. Two months later, she got back with Jackson after breaking up with a new partner.
