A man who handed his wife a police domestic abuse poster with a handwritten threat on it while in a pub had his sentence deferred at Dundee Sheriff Court.
Ronald Tolmie, 42, of Kirkton Place, had previously admitted that on March 24, at the Bay Horse Bar, Polepark Road, he behaved in a threatening or abusive manner by handing Iris Tolmie the poster, which had a threatening message written on it.
He further admitted that on March 27, in Fairbairn Street, he behaved in a threatening or abusive manner likely to cause fear or alarm by shouting and swearing at his wife and threatening her with violence.
Sheriff Simon Collins deferred sentence until September 28 for Sheriff John Rafferty to deal with the case and for Tolmie to be of good behaviour.
