A KESGRAVE man who punched his sister's boyfriend has been warned he could face prison.
Thomas Donohoe, of Adams Place, pleaded guilty to a charge of assault causing grievous bodily harm at a hearing at magistrates' court in Ipswich.
The court heard the 21-year-old punched Darren Warburton in an attack in Felixstowe on December 13.
Warburton ended up in hospital with a broken jaw and dislocated eye socket as a result of the incident.
Ian Pells, prosecuting, described the assault as an "unlucky punch".
Magistrates adjourned sentencing for the preparation of pre-sentence reports, leaving all options open.
Donohoe was released on bail to return to court on January 11.
