A man is to be sentenced next month after being caught with a knife in Aberdeen city centre at 4am.
Ian Gray, 38, appeared at Aberdeen Sheriff Court where he admitted possession of a lock knife on Guild Street on February 20.
He also admitted breaching bail conditions.
Fiscal depute Colin Neilson said: “At around 4am on February 20 the police had reason to speak to the accused at the locus in relation to a matter no longer continued with by the Crown.
“They found the accused in possession of a Leatherman multitool which included a knife blade that locked into place.
“In response to caution and charge the accused said, ‘I didn’t know it was a lock knife’.”
