Berkeley couple bashed over loud music: court

An elderly Berkeley man who asked his neighbours to keep the noise down was attacked as he returned home late on Saturday, a court heard yesterday.

When the man managed to make it back to his Derby St home about 11.30pm, Owen Skinner, 21, kicked in the door and continued to assault him, police allege.

    • I always felt strongly that anyone who hurts a child or a elderly person has no right to be mixed with society. THey should be wiped and sent to a island to fend for themselves. They are the worst of cowards.

    • The couple were in their 70s. How messed up is that. I hope that they make it to court to give testimony to make the bastard pay for this!!

    • Oh this reminds me of the story that had cameras that were going to catch loud music perpetrators. There were people in there that thought that was a horrible idea.

      I suppose this....this abuse is what they had in mind as a good idea.

      Hope they're happy with this outcome.

      Sad that someone can't just turn it down.
