A woman has been banned from living at her own address in a Scottish city after breaching an anti-social behaviour warrant.

Sheila Marshall, of Law Road, Dunfermline was told to hand in her house keys to the police station during a court hearing.


The 38-year-old appeared in court where she admitted to breaching the order between June 14 and August 3 by playing loud music, shouting and behaving in a manner likely to cause distress or alarm or allowed others.

In a request for bail, her solicitor said Marshall could live at another address with her dad.

Sheriff Susan Duff allowed bail.

However, as part of the conditions, the "neighbour from hell" was given two hours to go home, collect her personal items and move to her temporary address after handing in the house keys to the police station.

It comes after another rowdy neighbour was jailed in Alloa, Central Lowlands of Scotland, after failing to turn up for his unpaid work.

Kevin Barr admitted that on June 6, in a police vehicle, he shouted, swore, acted aggressively and failed to desist when told to do so.

LATEST DEVELOPMENTS:

Officers had received a noise complaint at his home address at 10.45pm.

After receiving no response, police forced their way inside and found the 34-year-old inside.

After being arrested, Barr said: "I'll fight everyone in Alloa".

"I'll kill you. That's not a threat, it's a promise."

Defence solicitor Kelly Howe said her client has "significant mental health issues and also abuses illicit substances".

She added that: "Life is a constant struggle for him and he's had the revolving door of prison".

He has been jailed for three months.
