A 26-year-old woman has admitted to being in a punch-up with a female relative in front of young children.

Jebrie Hill, 26, pleaded guilty to affray in Magistrates’ Court yesterday.

Prosecutor Garrett Byrne said an “alarmed” neighbour called the police when she saw Hill brawling with another woman on August 1 in front of the youngsters at Wellman Lane, Southampton.

Hill, who is unemployed, told Senior Magistrate Archibald Warner that “it was a family dispute that got out of proportion”.

She apologised to the court for her actions.

Hill received a 12-month conditional discharge dependent on her good behaviour.
