A MAN bombarded his former partner with unwanted calls and messages and put on a “Mickey Mouse” voice when he spoke to her on the phone, a court has heard.

- JASON EVANS

Philip Solomon told the woman he wanted her back and said he “won't stop” until he gets it.

Swansea Crown Court heard the 35-year-old defendant “can’t deal with breakups”, and his advocate said whether that was due to “deep-seated issues” was something which may need to be explored.

Emily Bennett, prosecuting, told the court that Solomon's relationship with his partner ended in December 2024 and he was subsequently made the subject of a non-molestation order.

Shortly after the order was issued the defendant breached it by phoning his ex and then driving past her at Broad Haven beach and blowing kisses at her.

Solomon was convicted of stalking and breaching the non-molestation order and in June this year was made the subject of a community order and restraining order.
