Teenager who shoved police officer at Perth football game caught with £200 worth of cocaine

A teenager has been fined over £500 for pushing a female officer at McDiarmid Park on a match day then being caught with £200 worth of cocaine stuffed down his shorts.

Nineteen-year-old Nathan Ford from Dundee shoved the officer after she challenged him about a bag he was seen taking out of his shorts as he made his way through the stadium during a Tayside derby last year, Perth Sheriff Court heard last Wednesday.

Fiscal depute Nicole Lewis said Ford had already been ordered to leave the North Stand for being too drunk during the St Johnstone versus Dundee United game when he was seen on CCTV to be acting shiftily with the bag.
