Man beats wife with fish

DRUNK husband John Cole faced the scales of justice for hitting his wife Elaine with a fish.

A court heard the hung-over former fork-lift driver woke up in a rage thinking she had hidden two cans of beer.

He punched the ex-barmaid after hitting her with the 8lb pike from their kitchen during Tuesday's row.

Cole, 54, of Sedgley, West Mids, admitted common assault. He was given a six-month conditional discharge and ordered to pay £70 costs by Dudley magistrates.

After Wednesday's hearing, regretful Cole said he couldn't bring himself to eat the pike.

He revealed: "I fed it to our cats and dogs."

Elaine, 49, said she forgave him but added: "I could've been seriously hurt or killed by that fish."

What a dimwit. At least they're on a equal playing field. 😕
