From a dangerous driver to a serial thief - this is who has been in court in South Yorkshire this week
Star court reporter Jon Cooper has been covering cases at the magistrates' and crown courts. Here you can read about some of the defendants brought to justice in recent days.
Offenders from across South Yorkshire and Sheffield are continuing to be brought to justice at Sheffield crown and magistrates’ courts.
Cases here include thugs, armed men, a sex-offender, a dangerous driver and a serial thief.
One armed man with an imitation firearm threatened students at a loud party, a judge has dubbed a dangerous driver who fled from police as an “absolute lunatic”, and a prisoner faces more time behind bars after attacking an inmate with a “shank”.
In other cases, a pervert was identified in a photo from his hairy hand and another man was caught with three weapons in a car.
