Fife man fined for threatening behaviour towards partner

Stuart Graham, of Croft Crescent, appeared before Sheriff James Williamson at Kirkcaldy Sheriff Court.

Graham, 39, admitted that on October 25, 2020 at an address in Ruthven Green, Glenrothes, he behaved in a threatening or abusive manner in that he shouted and swore at his partner and threw a dog bowl to the floor.

The Procurator Fiscal Depute said: “An argument began between the accused and the witness.

"The accused became aggressive and was asked to leave. He refused and the argument progressed.

"The accused picked up a water dish and threw it. The witness became increasingly concerned for her safety.”

Graham’s defence agent said his client appeared contrite when explaining the circumstances and added that his client had been staying between his father’s and a friend’s address.

Graham was fined £200.
