A Machynlleth man will be sentenced later this month after being found guilty of an assault at Machynlleth Lesiure Centre.

David Williams, of Flat 1A, Milk Bar, 17-19 Penrallt Street, appeared before Aberystwyth Magistrates’ Court on 4 February.

The 47-year-old had denied an assault at Machynlleth Leisure Centre on 12 May at a hearing in December but was found guilty following a trial on 23 January.

Williams, who failed to attend the January hearing, also admitted a charge of failing to surrender to bail.

Magistrates adjourned the case for a pre-sentence report to be prepared.

He will now be sentenced for the offences at Aberystwyth Magistrates’ Court on 26 February.

Williams was remanded on conditional bail until the sentencing hearing.
