He admitted committing the offence while on bail.
The Procurator Fiscal Depute told the court: “The accused went to speak to the complainer who was not in the property and instead spoke to the witness. The accused asked to see his son but was told that would not be possible.
"Upset by this, the accused kicked a nearby bag of rubbish which was near a parked motor vehicle. He walked away from the scene. The complainer arrived home shortly thereafter and noticed damage to the vehicle’s wing-mirror.
"She was convinced it was done by the accused and sent him a message on Facebook asking him why he had done it. The accused apologised for the damage and asked her not to contact the police. The accused was interviewed by officers. He said he was ashamed of what he did and said he would pay for the damage.”

The accused had been seen running from the scene and his hands were cut. On gaining entry to the property officers saw a television had been smashed and other items had been damaged.”
Doran’s defence agent told the court his client had apologised for the damage caused to the wing-mirror and was in a position to pay for the damage. He said his client had been struggling during the pandemic and had turned to drinking alcohol.
Sheriff Williamson sentenced him to an 18-month community payback order requiring him to be under supervision and ordered him to carry out 160 hours of unpaid work. On the other charge he deferred sentence until February 3.
