A violent man who held a knife to his twin brother’s throat and battered him was jailed for 17 months yesterday.
Noel Barclay, 25, attacked his non-identical twin Patrick at Noel’s Kirkcaldy flat last Christmas Eve.
Falkirk Sheriff Court heard it happened after a “disagreement in relation to family matters”.
Barclay pled guilty to assault and Sheriff Derek Hamilton told him: “As soon as you bring a knife into an argument, that increases the seriousness of the incident.”
