ABERDEEN MAN JAILED FOR BRUTAL ASSAULT ON WOMAN’S PARENTS AFTER FIRST DATE

Zachary Grey was involved in a violent incident that ended a first date on a disturbing and aggressive note.

After meeting for the first time, Grey went back to a woman's house to watch a boxing match.

During the evening, an argument erupted between Grey and the woman's stepdad, which escalated into a brutal assault.

Grey smashed a picture frame over the stepdad's head and attacked him with an ornament, then continued to kick and punch him repeatedly.

When the woman's mother intervened, Grey pushed her down and assaulted her as well.

A neighbor, witnessing the violence through a window, called police.

Grey fled the scene, but not before throwing a concrete slab through the window of the house.

He later pleaded guilty to assault, vandalism, and failure to appear in court.

The court sentenced Grey to be supervised for 18 months and to complete 200 hours of unpaid work, instead of jail.

The incident was characterized by the defense as an "unusual tale of a first date," with Grey supporting Mayweather in a boxing match and the stepdad supporting McGregor.

The court also noted Grey's past difficulties.

In the court's decision, Sheriff Philip Mann ordered supervision for 18 months and unpaid work as an alternative to imprisonment.
