A man who kicked a police officer later said it "felt good."
Haini Allen pleaded guilty before the Whanganui District Court on Tuesday to charges relating to assault and intimidation after he pushed one victim and kicked a police officer.
Police prosecutor Steven Butler told Judge Philip Crayton that on the evening of October 14 two people were walking down Terrace Street when Haini approached them. He pushed one of the pair - a woman - to the ground.
When a woman driving past in her car stopped to make sure the sure the female victim was okay, Haini proceeded to shout at and intimidate her.
The driver, who had two children in her car, drove away and was chased by Haini.
