Punched 13-year-old weeks after leaving jail
A Douglas man's been sent back to jail after attacking a teenage boy just weeks after he was released from prison.
Twenty-two-year-old Lewis Jack Moulder Kelly, of Hutchinson Square, appeared at Douglas Courthouse.
On November 11 he punched a 13-year-old boy on Snugborough Avenue, in Union Mills, just before 7pm - he also tried to punch a woman who intervened in the incident.
Members of the public called police, and Kelly, who was drunk, was arrested.
However when he arrived at Police Headquarters he became verbally abusive and shouted racial epithets at an officer.
The court heard Kelly couldn't remember the incident but accepted his behaviour had been appalling.
He was jailed for 12 weeks, and the High Bailiff Jayne Hughes reactivated eight weeks of his previous jail term meaning he'll spend a total of 20 weeks behind bars.
