A man who was due to go to jail for punching and kicking a blind man has had his sentence replaced with a suspended term following an appeal.
The attack happened after a blind man bumped into Gilmour with his rollator walking aid
The court was also told that the victim of the assault "was upset" that his attacker had received a custodial sentence last month. The blind man was knocked down by the blows and while he was lying injured on the ground, Gilmour proceeded to kick him - footage of which was filmed by a passer-by on a mobile phone.
