Overview

  • The July 13 incident saw four men follow three patrons from the Angel pub car park in Welshpool and brutally attack them, with CCTV capturing one victim thrown to the ground and another kicked in the head.
  • Officers searching Jack Dixon’s home uncovered about £900 worth of cocaine and cannabis along with weighing scales, leading to additional charges of intent to supply Class A and B drugs.
  • Court recordings revealed Dixon quipping “Did I f***” when told his lawyer would highlight his remorse, and he and Kaden Manuel were heard laughing through victim impact statements without realising their microphones were live.
  • Troy Cummings, who was already under investigation for breaking a resident’s nose weeks earlier, received an 18-month sentence and Jack Dixon was jailed for two years, each required to serve at least half their terms in custody.
  • Kaden Manuel and Ryan Jones, both with limited or no prior convictions, were handed six-month suspended sentences with mandates to complete rehabilitation programmes and between 100 and 150 hours of unpaid work.
