A TROON man has admitted attacking his partner in the town.
Craig Latona assaulted Nicola Bell in Portland Street just before Christmas.
Latona admitted the assault when he appeared in the dock at Ayr Sheriff Court last week.
The 47-year-old assaulted Miss Bell on December 21, in an attack that was aggravated by involving abuse of his partner, as per Section One of the Abusive Behaviour and Sexual Harm (Scotland) Act 2016.
Sheriff Ross Macfarlane QC called for background reports to be prepared on Latona ahead of sentencing.
