A man has been banned from one of Scotland's biggest and busiest shopping centres amid claims he terrorised children at the complex.
David Robertson is alleged to have chased children and attacked a teenager at a play park near to Braehead Shopping Centre.
Yesterday he pleaded not guilty to two charges over the alleged events of July 28 this year when the case called for the first time at Paisley Sheriff Court.
And he has now been banned from entering the Renfrew mall - which bills itself as "Scotland's premier retail and leisure destination" - after being released on bail over the case.
Prosecutors claim Robertson, 34, assaulted a 13-year-old, who can't be named for legal reasons, by kicking him on the leg at a play park.
And he faces a second charge of behaving in a threatening or abusive way by following children in the park, placing them "in a state of fear and alarm".
Sheriff David Pender set a trial for next year and released Robertson, of Glasgow, on bail with the special condition that he does not enter or attempt to enter the Shopping Centre.
