The injured party did not wish tomake a complaint, the court was told.

Defending solicitor Siun Downey said that obviously alcohol was a factor.

She added that her client was embarrassed and wanted to put this matter behind him.

District Judge Peter King noted that McQuillan had a previous conviction for disorderly behaviour in 2015 and had been bound over.
