🚨A teenager who brought nunchucks to a planned fight at Newcastle College has been given a suspended prison sentence after two people were injured in the brawl.
Alex Mathwin, who was 18 at the time, admitted offences including assault, affray and possession of an offensive weapon following the incident in March 2024. The fight, arranged as a “one-on-one,” escalated after both sides arrived with groups of friends.
Two young men needed hospital treatment before college security stepped in to stop the violence.
Mathwin has now been sentenced to nine months in prison, suspended for 18 months, along with unpaid work and rehabilitation requirements
