1/1 A MAN used a golf club as a weapon after his friend was knocked out by someone he had just assaulted.
Southampton Crown Court heard that Shaun Blything over-reacted after Robert Yeo hit a stranger on the back of the head and was punched to the ground. Blything began lashing out with a golf club, striking a member of the public on his right foot.
(Shaun Blything) It happened at Northam Road, Southampton, after Blything and Yeo had spent the day drinking in a nearby pub, the court was told. Rosemary Burns, prosecuting, said they left the premises and tried to get into cars before Yeo walked over to a man sitting on a bollard and assaulted him.
