A violent thug who stabbed a man in the chest during a club brawl has been put behind bars. Tobias Clarke, 35, pulled out a knife during a fight between a group of men and women at a club in Woodview, Cotgrave, at around 11pm on March 26 last year.
Clarke, of Edmund Close, Greenhill, Sheffield, was jailed for 16 months at Nottingham Crown Court after being convicted of two counts of possession of a knife in a public place and one of affray. The argument, which was initially a verbal row between two women, escalated into violence between two groups of people.
Punches were thrown at Clarke before he was spotted on CCTV with a large knife in his hand. Moments later, the victim turned away and could be seen with a patch of blood on his chest.
