Derry Magistrates' Court

A woman has appeared at Derry Magistrates' Court charged with a number of domestic offences.

Faith L'Anson (24) of Dacre Terrace in Derry was charged with, on July 28, making threats to kill, possession of an offensive weapon namely a knife, criminal damage of a TV and trespassing with intent to commit grievous bodily harm.

Police told the court that L'Anson had come after her partner with a large kitchen knife that was later found down the back of her trousers when she was arrested. They added that she has no domestic history.

Defence solicitor Seamus Quigley, when applying for bail, said that she had 'no criminal record whatsoever'.

Bail was granted to an address approved by the PSNI with conditions including no contact with the injured party and that she abstain from alcohol and not enter any licenced premises.

She will appear again on August 21.
