A Glasgow man who had been boozing for 19 hours has been jailed after making a number of derogatory remarks towards police officers.
Out-of-control Ryan Wynn brandished a bottle of vodka at cops when they turned up at a “disturbance” just before 12noon on May 4 this year.
The 36-year-old attempted to run away from cops and tried to resist arrest but his attempts were unsuccessful.
Vile Wynn, of Harelaw Avenue, Glasgow, then made a number of racial and homophobic remarks towards officers making threats to “burst” them.
The procurator fiscal depute today told Paisley Sheriff Court: “Around 11.40am on May 4, police attended at a property in Barrhead’s Neilston Road after receiving a report of a disturbance.
“Upon their arrival, officers observed two males, one was the accused who was clearly under the influence of alcohol.
“Police tried to engage with the accused and he picked up a glass vodka bottle and brandished it towards the officers.
“He became highly aggressive and verbally abusive before making off on foot.
“Police caught up with the accused and he struggled with PC Dodd using his bodyweight to attempt to break free and resist arrest.
“Wynn was taken to the ground where he continued to struggle with the police officers.
“He was taken to Govan police station where he made threats to PC Levens stating, ‘I’ll kick your c**t in you smelly wee boot.’
“While in the holding cell area the accused continued to be abusive towards officers stating, ‘ya bean licking c**t, ya f*****g f****t c**t, specky hotdog, if I wasn’t in these cuffs, I’d burst every c**t in here.’
“And when the accused was being processed he made remarks to custody staff stating, ‘are you Polish? She’s no even from this country.’
“He was thereafter taken to a cell and released later on an undertaking.”
Defence agent Kevin Brady told the court Wynn was aware this was “disgraceful conduct.”
Mr Brady added: “He has shown remorse and on this day he had consumed excessive alcohol.
“He has since taken steps to deal with his alcohol problems as he had been using alcohol as a crutch for other problems in his life.
“It’s been 13 years since he served a custodial sentence but he accepts you could send him to custody today.”
Sheriff Sukhwinder Gill slammed Wynn stating: “You’re a man of 36, you have 44 previous convictions including assault to serious injury, public disorder and domestic offending.
“In this case, you had been drinking alcohol for 19 hours and brandished a bottle of vodka at police officers.
“You made racial and homophobic comments.
“Police officers have a hard enough job without people like you behaving in this way towards them.
“You have well and truly crossed the custody threshold. I have considered alternatives but I’m not going to as a message has to be sent out that this behaviour is unacceptable.”
Sheriff Gill jailed Wynn for eight months.
