Subscriber only A simple request to keep the noise down as to not to wake a baby ended in a street brawl involving a butcher s knife, a court heard. Daniel Caine Holland appeared in Tweed Heads Court on Monday by videolink from custody in Clarence Correctional Centre. He pleaded guilty to charges of affray, using an offensive weapon to commit an indictable offence, damaging property and failing to appear. Court documents revealed the Tweed Heads South man had stayed the night at his partner-of-seven-months house when he woke up early on October 18. When Holland s partner asked him to keep the noise down because of her sleeping grandchild upstairs, he became argumentative and threw her phone at the wall, cracking it.
