A PART-TIME roofer from Caol was fined £315 at Fort William Sheriff Court last week after admitting assaulting a police officer and trying to headbutt him.
Martin Lawrie, of Blar Mhor Road, pleaded guilty that on May 19 this year, at a previous home address in Caol, he had assaulted PC Dean Gillies in the living room of the property.
Sheriff Eilidh MacDonald heard how on the day in question both Lawrie and his mother had been drinking and a row had broken out between the two of them.
