The man who threw an iron bar at a car, which lodged in another man's head, was today sentenced to 10 months home detention.
Shayne Zonneveld cried as Judge Robert Wolff described the impact the injury has had on the victim Adam Artimage's life.
On January 17, Mr Armitage walked
into Katikati Caltex service station, holding an iron bar which was lodged in his head, and asked for help.
The court heard today Zonneveld was asked to assist a friend who believed his sister was in danger from an ex-partner, a friend of Mr Armitage.
After a confrontation, Mr Armitage attempted to drive away and Zonneveld threw an iron bar at the car.
