Paul Pitcairn (36) appeared at Falkirk Sheriff Court last Thursday having admitted behaving in a threatening manner and theft – stealing cans of beer, chocolate bars, sweets and an electronic device – from Aldi, Polmont, on February 19.

The court heard Pitcairn, 49 Avontoun Crescent, Whitecross, had not turned up to social work appointments.

Sheriff Craig Harris said he would give Pitcairn a “final chance”.

Sentence was deferred until November 24 for a criminal justice social work report and a restriction of liberty order assessment.
