Both women have been ordered to appear at Selkirk Sheriff Court
TWO women who admitted making racial and threatening comments during a neighbourly dispute about wheelie bins have been ordered to appear personally at Selkirk Sheriff Court.
Deborah Lyons, 52, of Lothian Road, Hawick, and 20-year-old Sophie Yorke of Cotgreen Road, Tweedbank, pleaded guilty by letter to behaving in a threatening or abusive manner.
The offence happened in Cotgreen Road, on January 23.
After hearing a brief narration of the facts, Sheriff Donald Corke deferred sentence for a personal appearance.
