A TEENAGER damaged his brother’s car during an ongoing family feud.

Blackburn magistrates heard Calvin Cook had been arrested for the first offence and released on police bail when he committed the second.

Cook, 18, of Yorkshire Street, Accrington, pleaded guilty to two charges of criminal damage to cars belonging to Declan Cook.

He was ordered to pay £285 compensation and made subject to a restraining order which prohibits any contact with his brother for six months.

District Judge Alexandra Preston said the second offence was committed when Cook was on police bail for the first.

She added: “You have clearly got some kind of a rumbling argument going on with your brother and it is extremely immature of you to deal with it in this way.”

Jonathan Taylor, defending, said there was a lot of family history of difficulties which had arisen previously.

“There has been an ongoing dispute and it has been six of one and half a dozen of the other at times,” said Mr Taylor.

“This clearly needs to come to an end and he has taken that on board.”
