Ciaran Watters, 65, received a suspended sentence for violently knocking his elderly neighbour off a ladder during a dispute over hedge trimming, resulting in injuries.
The incident arose from a longstanding argument between Watters and his nearly 80-year-old neighbour, exacerbated by the stress of the ongoing hedge maintenance.
Court proceedings revealed the shoveled assault was not merely a spur-of-the-moment reaction but the culmination of a series of grievances between the two men.
The dramatic nature of the attack resulted not only in physical harm to the victim but also in a disturbance of peace in their shared living environment.
