Michael Holmes, aged 30, was jailed for four years and nine months after committing “frightening” domestic abuse at his former home in Madeley and screaming in a cashier’s face while holding a knife to her shoulder in a service station shop in Sutton Hill
West Mercia Police has released his mugshot from custody, and a senior officer said he hopes the sentence “sends a message” to people carrying out violent crime.
Detective Sergeant Ryan Forester, from Telford’s serious acquisitive crime team, said: “This was a terrifying incident for the victim, and I am glad that Holmes has been handed this sentence.
“I would like to thank my team for their hard work in identifying Holmes as the suspect so quickly which meant a dangerous individual was charged and put before the courts.
