Warrant out for homophobic attacker
A warrant has been issued for the arrest of a Polish man who carried out a homophobic attack in a Northampton.
Andrew Mazonjk, aged 26, failed to turn up at Northampton Crown Court to be sentenced for an assault committed with another un-named Polish man.
They were in Victoria Park in Semilong on June 27 when they attacked and assaulted a 21-year-old man.
Michael Ellis, prosecuting, asked Recorder Sam Mainds to issue the arrest warrant when Mazonjk, of Aberdare Road, Spencer, failed to answer his bail on Friday.
He said: "This was a rather unpleasant homophobic attack in a park. The co-accused has already fled back to Poland."
Mazonjk is now at risk of a consecutive prison sentence of imprisonment in addition to anything imposed for the actual bodily harm offence which he admitted in the magistrates' court.
