Larne man told woman she 'wouldn't be able to hide from him when he turned it up a notch'
A Larne man told a woman she "wouldn't be able to run and hide from him when he turned it up a notch".
Joseph Forsythe (26), with an address listed as Mill Brae, was sentenced on charges of harassment and threatening to damage property in relation to the summer of 2024.
On one occasion he was outside his ex-partner's property in Larne near 11pm and, the court was told, had shouted: "I am going to throw a bin through your window."
Antrim Magistrates Court, sitting in Ballymena, was also told the defendant had sent over 100 messages and had told his ex-partner she "wouldn't be able to run and hide from him when he turned it up a notch".
A defence barrister said the defendant was sorry for his behaviour.
The defendant was given a five months prison term, suspended for two years, and a two-year Restraining Order was put in place.
