Man Faces 42 Weeks Behind Bars After Brighton Assault

A man who was wanted by police has been jailed for 42 weeks after an assault where he punched his victim to the ground in Brighton.

Kamil Kaminski, 22, of Elmore Road, Brighton, who was wanted by police in connection with the assault was arrested and charged on Friday (August 11).

He appeared at Brighton Magistrates' Court on Saturday (September 12) and pleaded guilty to assaulting a man at the Co-op in St James' Street on July 9 where his victim suffered a facial injury.

Mr Kaminski also pleaded guilty to taking a Piaggo scooter without the owner's consent, failing to comply with traffic signals, driving without insurance and a licence in Elmore Road on April 2 this year, and forging a driving licence.

In addition to his prison sentence, he has also been banned from driving or applying for a driving licence for 16 months and ordered to pay £500 compensation.

Detective Inspector Ian Still said:

"We were looking for Kaminski for a number of weeks and he thought he could evade us but as this result shows we were determined to pursue him and bring him to justice."
