A TEENAGE attacker will be sentenced later this month after assaulting a police officer.

Diagio Biddle entered guilty pleas to one count of causing criminal damage to property valued under £5,000, one of assaulting an emergency worker by beating, and one of using threatening, abusive, or insulting words or behaviour when he appeared before magistrates in Kidderminster in March.

The court heard from prosecutor Eleanor Peart that the 18-year-old had assaulted a police officer and had, intentionally or recklessly, damaged a pair of glasses belonging to her in Leominster on March 26.
