Man threatened to smash girlfriend's window over FaceTime before turning up at her house

A man threatened to smash his girlfriend’s window in a booze-fuelled rant over FaceTime before turning up at her house. Paul Clancy, 38, had been in a relationship with his partner for several years but problems arose following his issues with drinking alcohol.

Matters came to a head on January 1 of this year when an argument broke out after Clancy consumed alcohol. He was ‘not made welcome’ and instead went to sell his Xbox to a friend, Minshull Street Crown Court heard.

At around 9.30pm she received a FaceTime call from Clancy, who threatened to ‘put her windows through’, prosecutor Lisa Boocock said. “He later attended her address at 11.45pm, shouting abuse and kicking at her door.”
