A poultry catcher attacked a policeman who was called to his family home after an argument over Christmas. Martin Taylor, 24, was living at Hadfield Walk, Oak Tree, an area of Mansfield, when the incident kicked off on Boxing Day.
It began when his mother, Dawn Taylor, returned home from work. Her son, Martin, said: "We need to talk about Christmas, as no one made me a Christmas meal".
But his mum said she would talk to him later and went to bed, Nottingham Magistrates' Court heard on Wednesday (December 28). She was woken by Taylor shouting, saying, "I know you are awake. My Christmas has been ruined because of you".
