UK cafe owner banned from entering flower shop next door after punching florists in row over SMOKING
A raging café owner was fined and banned from entering a flower shop after he battered two florists in a row over SMOKING.
Businessman Rebaz Tahir, 44, attacked Gregg Kitson and Julie Bennett who run Hopmarket Flowers in Worcester.
Tahir, who owns the Black & White café next door, punched the couple several times leaving them with cuts and bruises on October 2 last year.
He flipped after the florists complained about Tahir’s staff smoking outside which was drifting into their shop.
Ms Bennett, 55, told a court Tahir was “snarling” when he attacked Mr Kitson by "pounding him and pummelling him" like a "wild animal".
Cancer survivor Ms Bennett was also punched in the face as the pair desperately tried to force Tahir to leave their shop.
Mr Kitson, 67, who had suffered a stroke just two weeks before the attack, was left bloodied and bruised and needed hospital treatment.
He said doctors told him the attack had slowed down his recovery from his stroke and their business was closed for four weeks.
Tahir was found guilty of two counts of assault by beating after a trial at Worcester Magistrates Court on Monday (4/7).
