Derry Court
A man has been jailed at Derry Magistrate's Court for a disorderly behaviour charge.
Ryan Doherty (23) of Clon Dara in Derry admitted charges of disorderly behaviour, resisting police and possessing class C drugs on June 21 this year.
The court heard that police were alerted by CCTV operators to a man making a 'general nuisance' of himself in Waterloo Street.
When police arrived Doherty had left the scene but a short time later was involved in an issue with a taxi driver.
Police searched him and found four class C tablets on him.

He said that the disorderly behaviour hadn't gone 'beyond the verbal stage'.
Doherty was jailed for three months.
