An Englishmen who got physical with Darth Vader’s wife, didn’t know the power of the darkside or the police. Ikbal Hare was arrested in Walsall, England for an assault that occurred on September 20. Hare believed that his neighbor Darth Vader, previously known as Mark Nokes, was having an affair with Hare’s girlfriend. Amid a confrontation with Vader, and little knowledge of The Force, Hare swung at him and missed, punching Vader’s wife in the cheek. Hare fled the scene, despite being chased by several people, and was captured two days later at his girlfriend’s house.
Hare plead guilty on October 17 and was sentenced to 18 months of probation, 200 hours of unpaid work and an anger management course for the assault crime.
