GARY Williams’s train home from jail turned out to be an immediate return ticket.
On Friday the 13 he was so drunk on a train at Llandudno Junction that the guard insisted it should not continue until he was removed.
“He had to be physically hauled off the train,” said David Mainstone, prosecuting at a Llandudno special court. “There was an open can of cider in his hand.”
At the St Asaph police custody suite he was equally troublesome.
Williams 34, of Pendalar, Caernarfon, pleaded guilty to breaching a criminal anti-social behaviour order which bans him from being drunk and in possession of alcohol in a public place.
He’d just served a twelve week sentence for exactly the same offence. “The first thing he’s done on coming out of prison is to buy drink and get drunk,” declared Mr Mainstone.
Nia Dawson, defending, pleaded for a suspended sentence to prevent Williams from losing his home. “He realises he’s been very foolish,” she said, “He’d fallen asleep on the train and was woken up at Llandudno Junction and didn’t want to leave. He apologises.”
However Williams was sent back to prison for eight weeks and on release he’ll have to pay costs of £345.
