A WOMAN was sentenced at Glasgow Sheriff Court for carrying a knife.

Lorissa Girwood admitted that on February 3 2017 at Mansion Court, Cambuslang, she had a knife in her possession without reasonable excuse or lawful authority.

The court heard police were called out after receiving reports of a woman with a knife.

When they arrived they asked the 20-year-old yo show her hands and when she did a black handled kitchen knife with a four-inch blade fell to the floor.

Sentencing sheriff Bonnar imposed a tag for 105 days on the Glasgow Road resident and placed her under supervision for 18 months.
