A DISTURBANCE at a Cardenden chippy ended up in a court appearance for the trouble-maker.

In the dock at Dunfermline Sheriff Court was Stephen Swanson, 28, of Earn Road, Kirkcaldy.

The incident took on September 24 at Zak’s Fish Bar, Cardenden Road.

Swanson admitted he behaved in a threatening or abusive manner by shouting, threatening violence to staff, acted in a threatening and aggressive manner and placed Nazagat Ali, the shopkeeper there and others, in a state of fear and alarm.

The court was told Swanson was already on a community payback order.

Sheriff Craig McSherry called for reports and sentence was deferred until December 13.
