A thug bizarrely seen shouting and hitting out at a bush in Leeds city centre then attacked a frail 85-year-old man before being rugby tackled by a member of the public.

Alin Nina was outside Boots on Commercial Street at around 10.30am on November 7 last year when people noted his odd behaviour. Heard to be shouting in a “foreign language”, he was then seen walking towards Albion Street. An elderly couple were heading towards M&S when, without warning, Nina struck the man to the back of the head from behind.

He also tried to steal almost £280 worth of cold and flu tablets and seven jackets from Asda on York Road on October 31 but was spotted and stopped by security. He gave a no-comment interview to police. He admitted ABH, assault and theft. He has three previous convictions for seven offences, including a common assault. Mitigating, John Bottomley conceded they were “unusual incidents” but said Nina was “remorseful for his actions”.
