'He hates me but I don't know why'

Victim a recluse after neighbour's terror campaign

- Sentinel Reporter

A NEIGHBOUR from hell who terrorised a man in his street has been spared jail.

Adam Walker, aged 25, subjected the resident to a campaign of hostility which included:

■Attacking his front door with a chainsaw and writing, 'You touch kids,' on a window;

■Growling through his letter box;

■Threatening to smash his head in and gesturing that he was going to cut his throat.

Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court heard the man was walking his dog when the defendant punched him twice leaving him with a cut eyebrow and swelling and bruising to his head.
