Selkirk sheriff court
A SELKIRK man who knocked a man unconcious in a local pub has been ordered to carry out 200 hours unpaid work at the town's sheriff court.
Thirty three year old Michael Young of Forest Road, pleaded to repeatedly punching Allan Beattie on the head and knocking him to the ground.
The victim was rendered unconcious during the attack.
The incident happened in O'Malley's Sports Bar on May 30 last year.
Young was ordered to carry out the unpaid work over the next 18 months as an alternative to a custodial sentence.
