A man was caught with a lock knife in a public place just days after he had a blazing row with his partner in Blairgowrie.
Police found Geo Wheeler in possession of the bladed article two days after he argued with the woman about what was termed in Perth Sheriff Court last week as a “disagreement over dogs”.
Wheeler (30) pled guilty to behaving in a threatening or abusive manner likely to cause a reasonable person to suffer fear or alarm by shouting and swearing at the female at his home address in Myrtle Park on July 4 last year.
