Appearing at Falkirk Sheriff Court last Thursday, Dekylin McJimpsey, 30, pleaded guilty to threatening behaviour – shouting, swearing, threatening to damage a window and repeatedly striking a door – at an address in Hunter Gardens, Denny on September 19.
He also admitted recklessly damage – repeatedly striking a motor vehicle – at the same location on the same date.
William McIntyre, defence solicitor, said: “He had much more to drink than he would normally and he doesn’t recall much of what happened. He deeply regrets what took place and assures me it’s a one off, it won’t happen again – he was overwhelmed by emotions.”
