Jonathan King was jailed at the High Court in Glasgow on Wednesday and told he was a risk to women.

A 'dangerous' man who followed lone women in the street and sexually assaulted three of them - including a 16-year-old girl - has been jailed for four-and-a-half years. A procurator fiscal described Jonathan King, 38, as a 'predatory individual' and said his 'truly alarming' behaviour has 'no place in society'. King preyed upon women throughout Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland.

King then subjected two other women to sexual assaults after approaching them in the Glen Lane and Fountain Gardens areas. King pleaded guilty after his victims gave evidence during a trial at the High Court in Paisley last month. He was convicted of three sexual assaults, three counts of threatening or abusive behaviour, and a single charge of assault.
