A garage apprentice who was sacked after threatening a colleague he suspected of "tampering with his lunch" was not unfairly dismissed, an employment tribunal has ruled.
Brooklyn Forrester-Hayes, 21, sent "abusive messages" to a person he thought had pranked him by "smashing his crisps" and poking "finger-sized holes through his sandwiches" in July 2023.
He had been working as an apprentice technician at the Scania depot in Swindon, Wiltshire, at the time, the Bristol Employment Tribunal was told.
Mr Forrester-Hayes claimed he had been unfairly dismissed and that managers did not take his ADHD into account, but the tribunal ruled bosses were entitled to conclude his behaviour was unacceptable.
