Harrogate woman jailed for hammer threat
A woman from Harrogate has been jailed for six months for threatening a person with a hammer.
Angela Gromett, 53, of Wetherby Road, pleaded not guilty to the offence, which occurred at her home in December last year.
But Gromett, who also uses the name Angela Bennett, was found guilty following a summary trial and was sentenced on Thursday at Harrogate Magistrates Court.
Court documents say she was jailed because it was "an unprovoked attack of a serious nature".
Gromett was also ordered to pay £156 towards victim services.
