A shoplifter who threatened to “slice up” a security guard and urinated in a staff stairwell has had his sentence deferred.
Graeme Fyfe, 45, was caught stealing alcohol and detergent from Morrisons, King Street, on April 5, and reacted angrily towards staff when stopped, before relieving himself.
Fyfe, of School Road, Aberdeen, previously pled guilty to shoplifting and behaving in a threatening or abusive manner, but yesterday his sentence was put off until November.
Depute fiscal Lucy Simpson previously said at around 8.30pm shop security saw Fyfe placing items in a bag and walking past tills without paying.
