Tooj 17 Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/north-east-...72703-26747693/ HE may only be 3ft 11ins but once Lee Kildare has a drink he likes to act the big man. As a result, the pint-sized prowler found himself in court again after admitting possessing an offensive weapon. Police were called to Chalfont Road, Walker, Newcastle, after reports of a man walking down the street with a baseball bat. And when they arrived they found Kildare gripping the bat in his hand and asked him to hand it over. Clive Freemantle, prosecuting, said: “He didn’t reply but was clearly drunk. They eventually disarmed him. But he swore at them and said ‘I have got some mates, I will get your face smashed in’. “When he was interviewed he said he had been drinking for two days and had the baseball bat as he was looking for a person he had had a dispute with. He was intending to attack.” But Michael Crowe, defending, told Newcastle Magistrates’ court Kildare did not stand by his comments about the incident on June 5. “Lee Kildare is a young man who suffers from a condition. He tends to turn to drink to help him cope with his problems. It does not take much for him to become intoxicated because of his stature. He had drunk some alcohol, too much for him, and had stayed at a friend’s house. “He was on his way back to his home when he was stopped by the police. Although in interview he said he had the baseball bat because he was looking to confront someone, he does not stand by the comments he made. “Lee says he was given it by a friend and was simply taking it home.” The 24-year-old, of Southern Road, Walker, was also charged with failing to surrender after he didn’t turn up to court. But he pleaded not guilty and said he was unfit to attend. A warrant was issued and he was brought into custody before the court case. Kildare, who was given unconditional bail, will be sentenced later this month. Magistrates said they expected him to produce a sick note when he returned to court.
