A COVENTRY man has been jailed for five-and-a-half years after he strangled a woman in a Nuneaton flat.
On November 9, 2022, Tayler Duncan and his victim had been out in Nuneaton when an argument started between them, and he assaulted the woman as they went through the town, biting her on the nose, and spitting at her.
The disagreement continued after they returned to the woman’s flat where Duncan pulled lumps of her hair out and strangled her, before punching her in the face leaving her with a black eye.
Duncan, 32, of Moor Street, Coventry pleaded guilty to intentional strangulation and assault.
He was also convicted of two counts of intentional strangulation, two counts of assault and one count of making threats to kill against the same victim in Coventry between July 2022 and March 2023.
PC Jas Hayre said: “Duncan is quite clearly a danger to women.
“The victim was subject to brutal attacks.
“The victim was extremely vulnerable, and the outcome could have been so much worse – strangulation is terrifying and if done even momentarily can be very serious.
“I am pleased Duncan has been convicted and received a substantial sentence, this will help to safeguard women from his abuse.”
