He pleaded guilty to assaulting police and resisting arrest.
The court heard that on November 14, 2025, police received a report of a domestic incident at Parkmore. On arrival, officers saw Titmus at an upstairs window. He was ‘slurring his words and appeared highly intoxicated’.
The injured party told police that Titmus had taken his phone and threw it to the ground. After his arrest Titmus kicked an officer on the leg several times and attempted to headbutt him.
A prosecutor said Titmus continually resisted police.
"Mr Titmus’ father made no statement of complaint,” the defendant’s lawyer said.
District Judge Michael Ranaghan said: “He has a bad record in his dealings with police.”
Titmus was sentenced to five months in jail on each count to run concurrently plus £25 offender levy.
