ANGRY son Connor Barker smashed up his mother's home and "behaved like The Hulk" after the "red mist descended", Grimsby magistrates heard.

Barker, 18, of Hildyard Street, Grimsby, admitted damaging two doors, a wall and a lamp, belonging to Lyndsey Barker, on March 16.

Nick Wyman, prosecuting, said Barker was at his mother's home in Hamilton Street, Grimsby, when there was an argument and he "lost his temper completely".

She thought he was "behaving like The Hulk" and he was ripping off doors, throwing things around and damaging doors and walls.

His mother was left very frightened of him.

Gary Bulbeck, mitigating, said Barker had woken up in a "particularly grumpy mood" after drinking too much alcohol.

He believed she had taken £20 from his belongings and the "red mist descended".

He damaged items in his bedroom and around the house.

Things had since calmed down and his mother was happy to have him at her home again, said Mr Bulbeck.

Barker also admitted stealing a cheese bun from a Spar shop at Thorpe Park on April 8.

He had not eaten for two days at the time and had no money, said Mr Bulbeck.

Unemployed Barker was given a three-month suspended prison sentence, a six-month supervision order and was told pay £85 costs and a Government-imposed £80 victims' surcharge.
