By Sam Webb A distraught mother was throttled in her own home by her neighbour's father after a long-running argument - over a fence. Ian Graham, 59, of Sunderland, charged round to Angela Forster's home and launched his attack, grabbing her neck and squeezing, while screaming in her face, a court heard. The families, who used to be friends, fell out in August 2012, after mother-of-two Ms Forster, 46, heightened her back fence, apparently upsetting her neighbours.
