A banned customer who returned to a pub with a 15cm kitchen knife had to be overpowered by seven people. John Robinson had been forcibly evicted but had gone home for the blade and "stormed" down the street and into the pub.
The incident happened at The Albion Hotel in High Street in Bangor on May 12 this year. Caernarfon Magistrates sent his case to Caernarfon Crown Court next month for sentencing.
Prosecutor Diane Williams said Robinson, 64, had been banned from The Albion for a previous incident. But he returned, was reminded about the ban and told to leave. However, on May 12, he went into the pub, was asked to leave and had to be forcibly removed. As he left, he said he would go home for a knife and then stab the landlord in the back.
