The attacker was 18-year-old Ceejay Faulks, now of Atholl Terrace, Kirkcaldy, formerly of Alice Cox Walk, Dunfermline.

He appeared in the dock at Dunfermline Sheriff Court for sentencing.

He admitted that on May 9 at Morrisons Daily, St Andrews Street, Dunfermline, he assaulted a shop worker by punching him on the head to his injury.

Depute fiscal Azrah Yousaf said that at 9.30pm Faulks went to the shop with his mum. He became involved in a confrontation with a shop worker and swung a punch which missed.

Faulks was escorted out of the store but came back later and punched the worker in the face before fleeing the scene.

Defence solicitor Alexander Flett said, “He’s now moved to Kirkcaldy and is keen to make a fresh start away from previous influences.”

Sheriff Susan Duff imposed a four-month restriction of liberty order.

Faulks was recently put on supervision for another offence where he fought his Grandad then a neighbour in Dunfermline before returning to the scene holding a steak knife.
