GLENROTHES MAN FACES ASSAULT CHARGES AFTER POST-OP ATTACK
Brian Howe, 40, of Cumbrae Park, Glenrothes, assaulted a woman just days after she went through “major” surgery.
Howe was supposed to be caring for the woman following her hospital stay when the attack occurred.
He pulled the woman down onto a bed, leaving her with bruising and in the following four days, bombarded her with more than 200 calls and 180 text messages.
Fiscal depute Xander Van der Scheer told Kirkcaldy Sheriff Court the woman had undergone an operation a week before the incident.
Howe admitted causing the woman fear and alarm by repeatedly sending her messages and by threatening her at an address in Glenrothes between October 29 and November 1.
He further admitted assaulting the woman at the same address on October 29.
Sheriff Timothy Niven-Smith deferred sentence for reports and placed Howe on bail with conditions banning him from contacting the woman or being at her home.
