POLICE received a phone call from a Dunfermline woman saying someone was smashing her windows and trying to get into her home.
The incident happened on Saturday and led to Connar Bates being arrested for throwing bricks at the her house.
Bates, 24, of Whirlbut Crescent, Dunfermline, appeared from custody at the town’s sheriff court.

He also admitted assaulting a police constable in the execution of his duty.
The court was told Bates was already on a restriction of liberty order.
Depute fiscal Dev Kapadia said: “The woman phoned the police to say someone was smashing her windows and trying to get into her home.”
