Shocking Attack in Newport: Father-Son Duo Assault Business Rival!
In a chilling turn of events, David and Jordan Dixon launched a brutal attack on business rival Gary Edmunds in Newport. The incident, which unfolded on January 26, 2022, escalated after a spat at a petrol station. Following a heated exchange, the Dixons showed up at Gary’s home and things took a violent turn.
David Dixon, aged 46, punched Gary, leaving him vulnerable, and Jordan, aged 28, viciously stamped on his head. As horrified passers-by rushed to help, the victim was left disoriented with severe injuries, including a perforated eardrum. His hearing, already compromised from a past medical condition, suffered further due to this unprovoked attack.
The court heard that both parties were once on good terms but a trivial incident involving a headlight sparked the attack. Both David and Jordan Dixon have pleaded guilty to the assault and received suspended prison sentences, along with orders to pay compensation.
Gary Edmunds’ personal statement revealed the attack’s deep impact on his life, making him fearful and anxious in his own community.
