25-YEAR-OLD JAILED AFTER COURT TOLD OF 'NASTY INJURIES FROM NASTY OFFENCES'

- By DAVID POWELL Daily Post Reporter david.powell@reachplc.com

Man woke his partner with lighter on her wrist

AN abusive man woke up his partner using a lighter on her wrist during a string of assaults.

Ethan Jones, who has “deep-seated — jealousy issues”, also grabbed the woman by her hair and punched her and said he “used to be an MMA (Mixed Martial Arts) fighter”, a court heard yesterday.

The 25-year-old, of Llwyn Hudol, Maesgeirch-en, Bangor, pleaded guilty to four assaults causing actual bodily harm, and intentional strangulation.

A judge at Caernarfon Crown Court jailed him for 27 months for ABH and for 15 months for inten tional strangulation, to run concurrently.

Prosecutor Dafydd Roberts said Jones and the woman had been in a rela tionship for six years.

His partner said he was “caring and thoughtful” at first but then they argued and it turned “toxic”.

Mr Roberts described several assaults.
