A CHEF who assaulted two police officers after they apprehended him for being outwith his home curfew has been remanded in custody at Selkirk Sheriff Court.
Twenty two year old Michael Brown was spotted by the police during the early hours of Sunday morning on Peebles High Street.
A quick check revealed there was a court order restricting him to be within his home address at Hawthorn Road in Galashiels at that time.
As they tried to put handcuffs on him, Brown repeatedly head butted and kicked one officer and was finally taken to the ground where he attempted to bite the officer and his colleague.
Sheriff Peter Paterson told Brown he had tested the patience of the court and said he had already been warned what would happen if he appeared again.
He refused a motion for bail and sentence was deferred until November 7 for background reports.
