A HAWICK man has admitted attacking his former partner with a bicycle at Jedburgh Sheriff Court.

Danny Sharkey of Galalaw Road, pleaded guilty to the assault on O'Connell Street by riding a bike at the woman.

The bicycle struck her on the body and he also attempted to grab a mobile phone from her during the attack on March 1.

But the 23-year-old's not guilty plea to behaving in a threatening or abusive manner was accepted by the Crown.

Sheriff Kevin Drummond ordered Sharkey to be of good behaviour for the next six months and deferred sentence until July 10
