Hide AdJames Whyley, mitigating, said “This is entirley out of Mr Pickering’s usual course of behaviour.
“He was always regarded as a sensible, intelligent lad who never stepped out of line.
“Everything went awry when he broke up with his partner two years ago. He started drinking to deal with that. His family remain supportive.”
He said Pickering had spent six days in the cells since his last arrest because “he was in a very poorly state”, and was prescribed medication.

He must also pay £85 costs and £85 compensation to the officer.
