Man spared jail after breaking GP’s wrist over parking

A man has been spared jail after breaking a doctor’s wrist in a parking dispute.

Bradford Crown Court heard Heath Kellett attacked Tamjeed Hakeem and his son, Yousef, in Saxton Avenue, Wibsey, Bradford, on 3 June last year.

The court was told Kellett, 49, who lives on the street, was angered when Dr Hakeem, a GP at Barkerend Health Centre, and his son, aged 20, moved the family car on to the street.

Kellet made offensive racist comments before attacking the pair.

Dr Hakeem suffered a serious injury to his wrist that needed 11 pins and two plates inserting to reset the bone.

Kellett was sentenced to 13 months imprisonment, suspended for two years, with 120 hours of unpaid work.
