Daniel Jones (40) appeared at Falkirk Sheriff Court on Thursday having admitted threatening behaviour at an address in Tedder Street, Grangemouth, on June 2.

Sheriff Eric Brown said the font or type face of the social work report on Jones made sections of it “impossible to read”, but there were some parts he could clearly see, including the statement Jones would be willing to undertake the Caledonian domestic abuse programme and the fact he had been assessed as suitable.
