A MAN has been jailed after he admitted assaulting a pregnant woman in Dalry in 2014.
Anthony John Nimmo, 27, who is a prisoner of Barlinnie, appeared at Kilmarnock Sheriff Court last week where he pleaded guilty to breaking into a house in Douglas Avenue, Dalry and stealing a quantity of baby clothing and toys.
Nimmo also admitted assaulting a woman at the same address and, knowing she was pregnant, pushed her to the ground, seized her by the body and struggled with her.
Both charges took place in May of 2014 and Nimmo was sentenced to serve 20 months imprisonment, backdated to December 3, 2015
