A violent man has been jailed for more than four years after assaulting two people in south-west London.

Tim Reddin, 24, of Walton Road, East Molesey, admitted causing actual bodily harm to a 25-year-old man in High Street, New Malden in May last year.

He also pleaded guilty at Kingston Crown Court to causing grievous bodily harm to a 26-year-old man in Charter Road, New Malden, in September.

Reddin had committed the GBH while on bail for the May assault, police said.

He was arrested in November last year after being spotted in a pub in Hampton Court by off duty officers.

He was jailed for two years and four months for the ABH and two years for the GBH charge. He will serve both sentences consecutively.

Reddin was also sentenced to nine months, to run concurrently, for possession with intent to supply class B drugs. He was also handed a £100 fine and forfeiture of £360.

Detective Inspector Adam Guttridge, from Kingston CID, said: “Reddin is a violent offender whose crimes have had a significant and lasting effect on his victims.

“Police dedicated significant resources to locating him and eventually it was local officers who were off duty that affected his capture and arrest.

“The sentence reflects the seriousness of the offences and his propensity for violence.”
