Man in court after kicking his sister up the bottom

Ross Miller, 31, of Dinmore Avenue, Grange Park, pleaded guilty to assaulting his sibling Mandy on May 31.

Defence lawyer, Steven Townley, said Miller, who had schizophrenia and Aspergers Syndrome, went round to his sister’s address at the resort’s Sawmills estate to get some tablets. There was an argument and Miller said his sister hit him, so he kicked her in the bottom. She had no injuries.

At present Miller was serving a community sentence and was under the supervision of the probation service after committing an offence of assault during a neighbour dispute.

Miller was given unconditional bail for pre-sentence reports.
