A POLICE officer was kicked by a 24-year-old woman in Lochgelly.

The assailant was Courtney Dale, of St Kilda Crescent, Kirkcaldy, who will be sentenced at Dunfermline Sheriff Court later this month.

She admitted that on March 15 last year at North Street, Lochgelly, she assaulted a police constable by kicking him on the body.

Dale was not in court for her sentencing hearing.

Sheriff Garry Sutherland deferred sentence again until June 26 for her to be present.
