A HAVERFORDWEST man has been fined after admitting obstructing police officers during an incident in the town centre.

John Smith, aged twenty-seven, of Castle Street, Haverfordwest, pleaded guilty at Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court to wilfully obstructing a constable in the execution of their duty.

The offence took place on Tuesday (Feb 3).

Magistrates fined him £160 and ordered him to pay £85 costs and a £64 victim services surcharge.

A TEENAGER has been ordered to pay compensation after admitting an assault which left another young person injured.

A 13-year-old boy from Pembroke Dock appeared before Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court charged with assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

The court heard the offence involved an attack on another youth.

Due to the age of those involved, no further details of the incident can be reported.

Magistrates ordered the defendant to pay £500 in compensation to the victim, along with prosecution costs.

The matter was dealt with in the youth court.

A DOMESTIC abuse case involving allegations of controlling and coercive behaviour has been discontinued at court.

Lewis Thompson-Gill, aged thirty-five, of Ashtree House, Worcester Road, Little Witley, appeared before Haverfordwest Magistrates’ Court charged with engaging in controlling or coercive behaviour in an intimate or family relationship.

The charge alleged that he repeatedly monitored the complainant’s phone and laptop use, restricted her ability to work, and caused damage to property.

The matter had been listed for trial but prosecutors formally discontinued the case before evidence was heard.

No application was made for costs.
