A dad assaulted his adult son after a row over wearing a pair of trainers.

Craig Hyslop, 44, lashed out at Dylan Hyslop at a property in Glasgow's Knightswood on January 5 2024.

Dylan had earlier warned "erratic" Hyslop not to go outside as he had his trainers on.

Hyslop then threatened his son, grabbed him by the clothing and made attempts to punch him on the face.

Hyslop pleaded guilty today at Glasgow Sheriff Court to assaulting Dylan.

He also admitted behaving in a threatening or abusive manner.

The court heard that Dylan was staying with his grandmother at the time.

They were visited by Hyslop who was under the influence of drugs.

Hyslop "behaved erratically" coming back and from the property, walking around then sitting on the sofa.

Prosecutor Abbas Ali said: "Dylan observed that Hyslop was wearing his trainers and told him that he shouldn't do this if he was planning to go outside again.

"Hyslop responded by saying 'get to f***, I will wear these f***ing shoes if I want to wear them'."

Later that night, Dylan was using the bathroom when he became aware of Hyslop at the door.

Dylan asked his father not to come into the bathroom but Hyslop refused.

Hyslop entered and stated: "What the f*** did you just say?"

Mr Ali added: "Hyslop grabbed Dylan by the clothing and chest area.

"Dylan pushed him away and Hyslop repeatedly approached him.

"Hyslop then threw a punch towards Dylan’s face which narrowly missed.

"Dylan pushed Hyslop out the bathroom, causing him to fall backwards."

Hyslop then approached his son in an "aggressive manner."

Meantime, the grandmother saw Hyslop swinging his arms towards Dylan in an attempt to strike him.

Dylan was able to restrain his father before he went to his bedroom.

Hyslop was heard to shout explitives such as "pr***s" and "a*******s" before the police were contacted.

Brian Lanigan, defending, told the court: "My client regrets his actions very much - it was an argument over a pair of trainers.

"He has been out of trouble and has no matters outstanding."

Sheriff Allan McKay deferred sentence for good behaviour on Hyslop, of the city's Drumchapel, until March next year.

He said: "If you are, I will admonish you and if not all options remain open."
