A woman who went armed with a hammer to her daughter’s friend’s house following a dispute has avoided jail.

Karrie Anne Apps pleaded guilty to affray at a Maidstone Magistrates’ Court hearing.

The court heard how Apps, of Willow Crescent, Tonbridge, travelled to the Staplehurst property where she confronted parents Daniel and Natalie Robinson.

The furious Five Oak Green mother pushed Mrs Robinson over before swinging the hammer and smashing a cabinet. No one was injured in the incident in October 2013.

The 39-year-old mother was arrested at her home and later told police she attended the house, in Greenhill, due to an argument that involved her daughter.

She was charged five months later.

Apps, who previously denied the charge, was handed a 70 day sentence, suspended for one year and will also have to pay £220 in compensation, £400 in costs and an £80 victim surcharge.
