A Pentrebach man has been handed a conditional discharge by magistrates for damaging a garden fence but been found not guilty of an assault charge.
Tao Baxter, of Navara, appeared before Aberystwyth Magistrates’ Court on 31 October.
The 45-year-old pleaded guilty to damaging the garden fence in Pentrebach belonging to Julian Morgan on 5 July.
Baxter had previously pleaded not guilty at a hearing in September to assaulting Julian Mogran on Pentrebach on the same day.
He was found not guilty of that charge.
Magistrates handed Baxter a 12 month conditional discharge for the criminal damage offence.
He must also pay compensation of £189 to the victim as well as costs to the Crown Prosecution Service of £85.
