A Dundee man who assaulted a police officer while he was more than six times the drink-driving limit has breached a community payback order.
Samuel Battershill, of Commercial Street, admitted the breach after failing to comply with the terms of the order, which included 200 hours of unpaid work.
Sheriff Tom Hughes was told the 25-year-old had not completed the hours.
The sheriff deferred sentence for a criminal prosecution and social work report.
Battershill had previously admitted that on February 21 last year, at Abbotsford Street, he was in charge of a car with excess alcohol (133 mics).
He further admitted assaulting PC Veronica Bissett and seizing her by the body. The offence was committed on the same date at police headquarters in Bell Street.
Battershill had been placed on the payback order for a year and disqualified from driving for 18 months.
Sentence was deferred by Sheriff Hughes to December 21.
