A dad who left his ex-partner terrified after turning up to her home with an imitation firearm went on to smear excrement in his cell after being arrested.
Dylan Walt turned up to the woman's home unannounced on January 3 and demanded to see his son. But when his former partner refused, he smashed a window, before a realistic-looking gun fell from his pocket and onto the ground. When the 26-year-old was arrested, he assaulted two detention officers before covering his cell door in his own faeces.
Walt, of Freda Street, Southwick, Sunderland, appeared at Newcastle Crown Court on Wednesday, via link from HMP Durham, to be sentenced for possession of an imitation firearm, two counts of criminal damage, two counts of assaulting an emergency worker and drug possession. He had pleaded guilty to the charges at a previous hearing.
