A funeral director who carried out a ten-year campaign of abuse against his neighbours has been banned from contacting them for 12 years.
William Main harassed two sets of neighbours by setting off fireworks, shining a torch into their home and firing an air rifle towards their garden in Dunbar, East Lothian. Main, 63, also deliberately used power tools in his home despite knowing neighbour Linda Thomson was on nightshift and made false reports to the police about their conduct.
Mrs Thomson and husband Derek said they were forced to move away from their “beautiful” home following Main’s behaviour towards them which took place on “a daily basis”. Main also turned his attention to new neighbours Jone Matteucci and Rebecca Weightman by lighting fires in his garden and following them in his car.
