Crufts competitor who drove her van into a Welsh dog show ring and racially abused a judge is fined £4,000

Marianne Hunter, 63, had travelled 270 miles from Kent to the Snooty Fox show in Narberth when she was told her lurchers could not enter two categories at once. She called judge Tracey Hodges a 'Welsh c***' and drove into the ring, knocking over a participant while children played nearby. Her husband stopped her by taking the van keys, Haverfordwest Magistrates' Court heard.

Hunter was described in court as a business manager for Public Health England.

Prosecutor Sian Vaughan told the court Hunter had 'no regard for anyone else'.

The charity show's proceeds went to the Welsh Air Ambulance and other local causes.
