A man who ran from police and was caught with a knife down his trousers faces jail.
Bryan Brown, 28, was snared with the blade in Glasgow's Shettleston on February 24 2025.
Glasgow Sheriff Court heard that police were alerted to a disturbance in the area earlier that day.
A description of Brown's clothing as well as his first name was passed to officers who searched the vicinity.
Prosecutor Victoria Keel said: "Officers saw him at the corner of a building.
"They approached him and he made off so they chased him to a close.
"Officers searched him before he was put in a police vehicle and he was found with a black and blue knife in his trousers."
Brown, of the city's Tollcross, pleaded guilty to possession of a knife in public place without a reasonable excuse.

Ian McCarthy, defending, told the court: "He knows the seriousness of the situation and that custody will be in the forefront of the court's mind."
Sentence was deferred pending background reports until next month by Sheriff Joan Kerr.
