A businessman let himself and two armed thugs into a man’s home before attacking him. Reece Driscoll, 52, let the two other men into the block of flats where he also lived before entering the man’s flat and repeatedly punching him to the head.
Minutes later, the two other men, both wearing a balaclava, joined in the assault by hitting the man with baseball bats. He was left with a nasty wound to his head.
Driscoll later told police he went round to the man’s flat for information following an alleged assault on the brother of one of the armed thugs. Driscoll, who the court heard part owns a business which had been set to receive a £200m investment, has since pleaded guilty to assault occasioning actual bodily harm and possession of an offensive weapon.
