A Glasgow man scared housing officers who came to him after complaints about motorbikes.
Workers from Rosehill Housing received multiple complaints about several motorcycles at a property in Pollok prior to May 18, 2023, when they visited the tenant.
At 3.30pm, Christopher McCullagh answered the door and the employees explained why they were there.
The 42-year-old became aggressive and said "f****** fine" before he finally allowed the staff members in.
When they asked to go to the garden, the workers saw several motorbikes and voiced their concerns.
McCullagh started shouting: “How the f*** can I not keep my f****** bikes?” and stormed off.
He then came back and repeated the question. The housing officers tried to speak to him but McCullagh stated: "No, I am not f****** talking to you”.
He pulled a shed door open, narrowly missing one of the housing officers as he continued shouting in the workers' faces.
They grew scared and decided to leave as the tenant continued to shout.
Police were called and on June 1, 2023, the accused went to Pollok police station.

McCullagh appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court this week after he pleaded guilty to behaving aggressively.
He also admitted to assaulting and being threatening towards a police officer on May 31, 2023 on Kennishead Road.
This was after he was stopped on his motorbike and told cops: “F*** you, just get to f***”.
He was hostile, kept swearing and adopted a fighting stance. Then, grabbed his helmet and swung it in the direction of the officers.
At the hearing, his lawyer said: "He is subject to two community payback orders. He seems to have turned his life around.
Sheriff Patricia Pryce announced: "What I intend to do is a further period of supervision.
"You could have gone to jail because you have a record of similar issues. But the report is very positive and you seem to be working well with social work."
McCullagh was sentenced to 12 months of supervision. He also has to complete 108 hours of unpaid work and he was tagged for nine weeks, keeping him indoors between 7pm and 7am.
