Twenty-four-year-old pleads guilty to two charges of assault
A row over an unpaid taxi ride landed a Pulrose woman in court.
Twenty-four-year-old Rebekka Lowther of Alder Road appeared before Deputy High Bailiff Christopher Arrowsmith at Douglas courthouse.
She pleaded guilty to two charges of assault on a police officer.
Prosecution advocate Hazel Carroon told the hearing Lowther had drunk two bottles of wine at a friend's house before getting in the cab at 11:30pm on 5 May.
When Lowther got home, she got out of the cab and told the driver she'd have to get money from inside her home.
The driver, however, called police when she didn't come back - and when officers tried to speak to her she became extremely aggressive and abusive.
The court heard she kicked one officer in the groin as she was being arrested, and another after she was detained at police headquarters.
Mr Arrowsmith bailed her in the sum of £500 and she'll appear in court again on 24 September.
