A man who punched two boy racers because he was at his wits' end with their behaviour on the road has been ordered to attend anger management courses.
Jaydean Ripia Hura, 34, screen printer, admitted two charges of common assault and appeared for sentencing in the Whangarei District Court last week.
A police summary of facts noted Hura became involved in a dispute with two men regarding a driving incident on September 12.
He punched one of them once on his head. Although the man suffered no visible injury, he later said his face was a bit swollen.
The other man was punched twice - on his nose and his forehead - and suffered a bleeding nose and lumps and swelling on his forehead.
