A teenager who threw a man through a window at Hastings Library during a fight has been sentenced to community work.
Timoti Wallace appeared in the Hastings District Court before Judge Tony Adeane on a charge of wilful damage and fighting in a public.
He was charged along with Jahziah Keepa who has not yet entered pleas.
The pair shocked members of the public as they started a fight outside the library in May with one man being thrown through the window.
Witnesses said two men then climbed through the smashed glass and the fight continued.
