A Kaiapoi man punched a man twice in the toilet of a central Christchurch bar because he committed "a breach of urinal etiquette", a court was told. Edward Trevor Aldridge, 47, pleaded guilty in Christchurch District Court in New Zealand to assault and Judge Raoul Neave told him: "This sort of behavior would be immature in teenagers or small children. This is exactly the sort of behavior that makes people afraid to go to town." Police prosecutor Sergeant Graham Butcher said the victim went gone to the Rock Pool bar with friends on December 16.
When he went to the toilet, he used a urinal next to Aldridge who accused him of looking at him and punched him twice in the face.Defence counsel Liz Bulger told the court: "This incident arose from a breach of what I understand to be urinal etiquette."Judge Neave sentenced him to 50 hours of community work, added to a 300-hour sentence he is already doing.
Thieves take cars back to owners
An unusual spate of car thefts in the Scottish Borders is being investigated by police. The vehicles have all been taken at night - but returned before the owners even noticed that they were missing.The thieves have entered homes, removed the car keys and gone for a drive before returning the keys and the vehicles. The offences have only come to light because keys have been put back in the wrong place, the cars are in different positions or the mileage has changed. At least eight cars have been taken in Jedburgh recently and driven for long distances before being returned.
