An East Kilbride woman hurled abuse at shop staff after they asked her to social distance.
Jamie Lee Mathers, 30, of North Berwick Crescent, appeared at Hamilton Sheriff Court this week.
She admitted threatening or abusive behaviour at Spar in Westwood Square earlier this year.
Jennifer Cunningham, prosecuting, said Mathers and another person went into the shop at 7am.
Ms Cunningham told the court: “One of the employees asked the accused to abide by social distancing guidelines and was met by a barrage of abuse.
“Mathers was then asked to leave the shop and continued to shout and swear at the staff.”
Mathers admitted an unrelated shoplifting charge involving clothing worth £72 that was recovered.
She also admitted threatening or abusive behaviour and police assault at her home in North Berwick Crescent in the early hours of January 22.
Officers were called to the house regarding a noise complaint at 4.45am.
The fiscal stated: “They spoke to the accused who started to shout and swear at them.
“She was advised that she was being arrested and continued to act in a highly aggressive manner.
“She made threats towards the officers and tried to headbutt one of them.”
Mathers admitted previous convictions and solicitor Andy Brophy suggested a criminal justice social work report would be “helpful” before sentence is passed.
Sheriff Daniel Kelly agreed, telling Mathers: “You have had some prison sentences previously, but we’ll see if any other options are available.”
The accused, who is on bail, will return to court on December 16.
