Booze-fuelled yob swore at lamppost during rampage

David Potter, 42, narrowly avoided an immediate prison sentence after a heartfelt 'mea culpa' to magistrates, who agreed to 'give him a chance' and pleaded with him to 'not let us down?

Potter's 'catalogue' of offending began in January this year, when police were called due to him becoming aggressive' on a bus on Hempshaw Lane, Stockport, and refusing to get off.

Officers attended, but as they were arresting him for being drunk and disorderly he began to 'resist' and kicked one of them in the chest, Gareth Hughes, prosecuting, said.
