I wanted to provide you with an update regarding Violent Crime, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey.

A man has been jailed for three years after he stamped on his then-partner’s back and broke her hand during an assault in Tadley.

Michael Skyrme, 67, of Park Prewett Road, Basingstoke, attacked the woman at her home address. The victim also suffered injuries to her face and wrist following the incident in August 2024.

Officers attended the scene and located Skyrme nearby a few minutes later. He was arrested and charged with assaulting a person thereby occasioning them actual bodily harm.

He pleaded guilty and was jailed for three years at Winchester Crown Court on Thursday 22 October. Skyrme was also given a five-year restraining order, banning him from contacting the woman.
