A THUG who sprayed anti-Semitic and neo-Nazi symbols on an MSP’s office window is back behind bars after robbing a schoolboy.

James Malcom, 20, pounced on the 16-year-old in Kirkintilloch in January this year.

Malcom punched and slapped the teen before stealing his iPhone, wallet and designer Armani watch.

The attack took place 13 months after Malcom was convicted of vandalising Rona McKay MSP’s Kirkintilloch office.

Malcolm also caused £14,000 of damage to 27 headstones at a cemetery and scribbled a swastika on one of them.

He then sprayed “All N*****s must hang” and “White Power” at two parks in the area and was sentenced to 28 months.

Malcolm pleaded guilty today at Glasgow Sheriff Court to the assault and robbery.

The court heard the teenage victim was on the way to a friends house when he was confronted by Malcolm.

Malcolm “punched the boy on his left eye and slapped him on the face a couple of times.”

He went on to raid the teen’s pockets and snatched his iPhone, wallet and the designer watch which belonged to his dad.

Malcolm fled the scene while the boy took shelter at a friend’s house nearby.

The teen contacted Malcom’s younger brother by Snapchat to have his belongings returned.

The brother replied that he should go to the police and a 999 call was made.

Officers showed up later that evening and arrested Malcolm before searching his bedroom.

Prosecutor Mark Allan said: “Inside was a bag containing the iPhone, the watch and the wallet which was returned to the owner.”

Malcolm replied: “It wasn’t me” when cautioned and charged for the offence.

Martin Hughes, defending, will make his plea and mitigation at the sentencing next month.

Malcolm was remanded in custody meantime for background reports.
