Knife was in his boxers
POLICE who searched a man they had detained, discovered that he had been carrying the knife with a two-inch blade, around... in his boxer shorts.
However, the court was told that the knife had not been concealed as a weapon but was part of his drug-taking paraphernalia.
Peter Mackay admitted having the knife in a public place, Murchison Street, Wick, on March 9.
The hiding place was discovered by officers at Thurso police station.
Solicitor Jo McDonald said that Mackay of 15 Strathmore Place, Thurso, had had “a fairly troubled past” and had problems to face including drug addiction.
Mackay, who has a record, was remanded in custody until April 5 for reports which will include an assessment under the drug testing legislation.
Shouldn't the 3rd line read?
