A CROMARTY woman who was ejected from an Inverness nightspot because she was drunk admitted racially abusing a doorman who had asked her to leave.

Inverness Sheriff Court heard on Tuesday that Samantha Bruton (24) of Townlands Park made an abusive remark to Barry Moore, referring to him as a “Paki”.

Bruton, who admitted behaving in a racially aggravated manner at the Smith and Jones pub on August 11, had been asked to leave by Mr Moore but went back inside and shouted abuse at him, according to depute fiscal David Bernard.

She was fined £160.
