A 25-year-old man has appeared in court for an air gun offence.

Dale Gibson, of Dean South, Livingston, admitted that on April 15 at Dunimarle Street, High Valleyfield, he was in possession of an air weapon without a valid licence.

Depute fiscal Duncan MacKenzie said police had been contacted over concerns for Gibson’s well-being.

They went to the property he was living at in High Valleyfield at that time but he was not there.

They went inside and found an air weapon.

Sheriff Francis Gill called for reports and Gibson will be sentenced on November 10.
