A man who brandished a broom and a poker at his mother and step-father - and threatened to kill his stepfather - has been jailed for 11 months.
Gary Tait, 32, turned up at his mother's home in Stenhousemuir, Stirlingshire, at 11am but was "removed" from the house because she was unhappy about him being apparently under the influence of drugs.
Falkirk Sheriff Court was told he returned a couple of hours later and "became aggressive", taking hold of the three-foot long broom.
