A Lewis man has been sentenced to prison following two assaults on the island.

Calum Nann was due to stand trial by jury on four charges but pleaded guilty to two offences at Stornoway Sheriff Court.

 

The 43 year old admitted injuring a woman by repeatedly hitting her on the body with a bottle.

 

He also punched her on the head a number of times, the court heard.

When police were called to the violent disturbance at an address in the Cearns district of Stornoway in April, Naan injured a constable by biting him on his fingers.


A plea of not guilty to holding a knife to a female's throat and attacking her with a bottle was accepted by the procurator fiscal.

Sheriff David Sutherland sentenced Nann to 16 months.
