A drunken woman knocked items from a supermarket’s shelves and threw flowers around.
As Chelsea Yardley left Tesco’s 24-hour Galashiels store in the early hours of the morning, she struck a shopper several times on the head.
Yardley, 21, of Weensland Road, Hawick, admitted committing a breach of the peace at the store on February 17.
“The accused and some friends went to Tesco at about 3am on a Friday. They were clearly intoxicated, and she began knocking stock from shelves and throwing flowers around the shop,” said prosecutor Graham Fraser at Monday’s sitting of Selkirk Sheriff Court.
He added: “This wholly unacceptable behaviour was all seen on CCTV.”
A man struck by Yardley had been leaving the store by its travelator. “He came across the accused and there was a confrontation, and she struck him a number of times on the head with her hands,” said the prosecutor.
Others intervened and the police were called.
Sheriff Kevin Drummond deferred sentence until February 4 for reports.
And he warned Yardley: “People will not be treated in this sort of way.”
