A MAN from Caernarfon has been jailed after admitting to attacking a person and taking his belongings.

Trefor Glyn Evans, 36, of North Road, Caernarfon, appeared at Caernarfon Crown Court on June 25 after admitting to robbery offences.

During the evening of January 29, a man was walking home in the Afon Goch area of Caernarfon when Evans threatened and demanded money from him.

Evans proceeded to attack the man, punching him and kicking him in the head.

He took the victim’s phone, coat, hat and trainers.

The man managed to run away to Caernarfon Police Station, where he reported what had happened.

Officers quickly located Evans and arrested him a short time later on the same evening.

He was jailed for four years and three months, and was also handed a restraining order, which states he must not contact the victim for 10 years.

District support sergeant Andy Davies, of North Wales Police, said: “Everyone should be able to feel safe when out in their own community without the fear of being attacked.

“I hope Evans’ sentence reassures the local community that acts of violence will not be tolerated and we will pursue those that seek to inflict harm.”
