Paul Owen hit brother Peter Owen with the van after an argument broke out between them at the Screwfix car park in Rhyl.

The brothers had been embroiled in an ongoing feud for some time prior to them meeting by chance at the store at about 5pm that day.

Peter Owen bounced off the van’s bonnet and on to the ground, before the defendant told him: “Get up and stop messing about”.

Judge Niclas Parry also ordered Paul Owen to complete 100 hours of unpaid work, and disqualified him from driving for a year.

He told him: “It’s extremely sad to hear of two brothers involved in such a long-running dispute. You are mature men; not boys in your teens.

“The consequences could have been so much worse. Mercifully, the injuries were not serious.

“You’ve got experience of life. Simply, use it.

“Do that work, knock it on the head, and do one other thing – just go and find your brother, and shake his hand, for goodness’ sake.”
