A man has been sentenced to seven months in prison after assaulting three officers who responded to a burglary report in Middlesbrough.

Cleveland Police said that the incident happened on Pelham Street during the early hours of Tuesday 22nd December 2019. 

22-year-old Anthony Dean Burgess-Williams, of Pelham Street, appeared in court on Wednesday 23rd December.

During the incident, one of the officers was kicked several times in the leg. Two officers were also head-butted. 

One of the officers suffered a broken nose.

Burgess-Williams was charged with two counts of assaulting an emergency worker and assault, causing actual bodily harm on another officer.

As well as being sent to prison for seven months, the man was also ordered to pay £300 compensation to the officer who had his nose broken. 

Detective Inspector Darren Wild said: 

“Assaults on officers will not be tolerated by us or the courts. 

“I’m pleased with the sentence that has been handed down, and we will continue to take a robust stance on assaults on any emergency workers.

“Let this be an example to anyone who thinks that this type of behaviour is acceptable; we will put you before the courts and justice will be served.”

    This is an enduring problem with a fairly simple solution. If someone does not come quietly, the police must be encouraged to dish out as much, if not more violence, than they are suffering. Every officer should be armed with a Taser and encouraged to use it. Asps should be deployed much more frequently and used to their maximum effect.

    As soon as the scumbags know they are going to get as good, preferably better, than they dish out, they will start to behave. Coupled to this should be some proper long sentences. Start attacking emergency workers, especially those who are unarmed, like medics, and an endless supply of porridge should be the criminal’s medium to long term horoscope.

    The fire service should be encouraged to use whatever is on the truck to defend themselves. The yobs would quickly stop attacking them when you consider the hardware on the average fire truck, starting with the hoses. They should all carry a canister of dye that can be inserted into the water line so that those attacking are deeply stained and thus either confined to home until it wears away or quickly arrested and locked up.
