A LOVE rat who two-timed his pregnant girlfriend by seeing her two sisters has been locked up for nine months.

Jordan Jackson admitted he assaulted Victoria Roy when she confronted him about the affairs.

Paisley Sheriff Court heard how angry words were exchanged between the two at his home in the town's Blackstoun Oval after she discovered he had betrayed her while she was expecting his baby.

In the argument that followed Jackson, 20, began to shout and swear before grabbing Victoria, 22, by the throat in the heat of the moment.

Sheriff Seith Ireland heard Jackson is serving an 18-month detention for another matter.

He ordered that the nine-month stretch should start at the end of his current sentence.
