Nottingham Crown Court heard that the boy, a teenager, was on an electric bike towards his grandfather to return it.
Tiggz DAT Author approached him after he stopped in front of a store. He claimed that it was his bike, according to the court.
Stuart Pattinson (prosecutor) said that he shouted at him “do I want to bang your face?”
“The CCTV camera in the shop captured the entire incident.”
Tiggz Dat Author (of no fixed address) was shown footage and he said to the judge that he could have done it differently.
“I am sorry for the incident.”
A victim impact statement was made by the boy, who stated that he needed counseling after the incident.
He said: ‘I’ve become really depressed after what happened.
“I got professional help as a result. I now feel very scared when out in public, I don’t like going out on my own – I don’t even like going out on my bike anymore.
‘I was confident before this, and now it feels like I have lost my self-confidence.
Tiggz DAT Author was sentenced to 24 months imprisonment, with a two-year suspended term, after being informed that he faces a custodial sentence.
The victim was required to perform 150 hours unpaid labor, to complete 20 days of rehabilitation and to pay a surcharge.
Judge Warburton, QC sent him to prison.
This is a serious offense.
“I’m giving you the chance to find out if you are able to stay out of trouble.
You have the right to make that decision. It’s time for you to put your money where your mouth is.’

Judge Warburton stated that the sentence was reduced because the offense is more than 2 years old and there have been no serious crimes since.
Court was informed that the 34 year-old had 29 previous convictions for 59 offenses in his entire life.
But he stated that his life is back to normal and that he just needs a place for Christmas.
Speaking to Nottinghamshire Live outside the court, Tiggz Dat Author said: ‘I just want to positively contribute to society – that’s all I want to do.
“Everything I’ve learned, all my lessons throughout my life. I want to be in a position to help my community prevent others from living a life full of crime.
“We all merit a chance. Nobody deserves to fail.” My way of doing this is not to be a nuisance, it’s to spread a positive message.
‘Whether it’s working with the council or the police or whoever, I will do what I need to do, and take whatever steps I need to take to be able to be given that opportunity.’
