A known thug slashed a security guard in Sainsbury's after being told he could not enter with his pet dog.
Mark Piper was stopped as he walked into the Royal Park Road store in Hyde Park, but then claimed it was a guide dog, despite a lack of insignia. The 36-year-old later admitted GBH without intent after the worker was left with damaged tendons in his hand in the struggle that followed. Prosecutor Anthony Moore told Leeds Crown Court that Piper had tried to enter the store on April 28 last year but was swiftly told he could not come in with the dog.
He was brought to the floor as the employee tried to restrain him, but they knocked over a stand of ceramic mugs smashing them across the floor. Get the latest headlines, straight to your inbox, with YEP’s free emails Piper then picked up a shard of a mug and attacked the worker, cutting his hand.
