Below are some of the more serious cases to have passed through Sheffield Crown Court recently including a robbery, an affray and a man who used an imitation firearm to threaten students.
Offenders have been involved in a street brawl, a drunken assault on a woman, a robbery of a woman at a cash machine and a robbery where an elderly man was assaulted.
One drug-fuelled driver was also involved in a police pursuit and damaged parked cars before he was captured.
But judges have punished these offenders appropriately with custodial sentences of different lengths.
