A PARTY guest who beat up another man after he made remarks about his girlfriend has been spared jail.
The victim was left with a broken cheekbone and four chipped teeth after Marlon Atreides attacked him.
Newcastle Crown Court heard how the 27-year-old confronted Jamie Gray at a house party in Jarrow, on February 24 this year.
He asked, "How do you know my girlfriend?" to which the victim replied, "I know her very well."
Atreides flew into a jealous rage and started punching him until
dragged away by other guests.
Mr Gray was treated at South Tyneside District Hospital and reported the attack three weeks later.
Atreides, of Stalybridge, Greater Manchester, was sentenced to a 45-week jail sentence suspended for two years, ordered to do 150 hours' unpaid work, pay £2,500 compensation and £500 towards court costs after pleading guilty to assault.
