Man who shouted abuse at Turkish barber shop staff handed supervision order

The Evening Times reports on the court appearance of a man who subjected staff at a Turkish barbers shop in Cambuslang, Glasgow, to a “racist tirade” of abuse.

Sean Keir, 27, “shouted, swore and uttered threats of violence” towards two employees at Turkish barbers shop, Chikos, on October 27.

Glasgow Sheriff Court heard Keir “repeatedly uttered offensive racial remarks” towards two employees and “threw an unknown object at the shop’s window”.

Keir, 27, admitted he acted in a racially aggravated manner at a court appearance this week.

He was placed under supervision for 18 months with a conduct requirement that he must undertake alcohol counselling.
