Bookies’ worker threatened with a “gun”

A Dunfermline man went into a local bookie shop claiming he had a shotgun and demanded money.

The incident resulted in Jonathon Sinclair (38), of Castleblair Park, appearing in the dock at Dunfermline Sheriff Court.

He admitted that on 16th April at Ladbroke’s, Baldridgeburn, he conducted himself in a disorderly manner, stated to an employee there that he was in possession of a shotgun, demanded money from him and committed a breach of the peace.

Sheriff Craig McSherry called for reports and Sinclair will return to court for sentencing on 16th August.
