'Darth Vader' escapes jail

 

A man who dressed up as Darth Vader and attacked the founder of Britain's first Jedi church was spared jail today.

Twenty seven year old Arwel Wynne Hughes, who has a chronic alcohol problem, jumped over a garden wall in Holyhead and launched the assault on the Star Wars obsessives while they filmed a documentary to promote their Jedi Church - which was formed last year.

Hughes who was drunk at the time bellowed ``Darth Vader'' as he hit Barney Jones over the head with a crutch and punched his cousin Michael in the thigh on March 25th.

Hughes was sentenced to two months in jail suspended for one year at the local Magistrates court today
