A man kicked in the door of a Rockhampton hotel after he was locked out of the room because his friends were having sex, a court has heard.
Ashlee Owen Lloyd Washington, 19, pleaded guilty in Rockhampton Magistrates Court on January 19 to one count of wilful damage.
Police prosecutor Senior Constable Peter Rumford said Washington and his friends checked into Rockhampton Court Motor Inn on November 6, 2020.
Snr Constable Rumford said sometime during the night, Washington forced the door open, damaging the door and a lock.
He said the following morning, staff noticed the door had been damaged and reported the matter to police.
With Rockhampton Court Motor Inn the first to sign up with Voyak last Tuesday, he said all accommodation providers were welcome to sign up. He said 10 per cent of profits every quarter would go towards funding ASTRO - Animal Services Treatment and Rescue Organisation, which was named after his dog who was adopted from the RSPCA in 2014. He said ASTRO s core idea was to fund people and organisations globally which support and rescue animals, as well as to increase animal welfare standards. He said the biggest motivator for him to become an entrepreneur was to fund ASTRO through his business.
