Man is convicted of feeding ham roll to horses

A MAN accused of trying to feed a ham roll to police horses was yesterday found guilty of breach of the peace.

Police officers told Glasgow's Justice of the Peace Court that Francis Kelly tried to get the horses to eat a gammon roll despite being told not to, and that he shouted and swore.

The officers said they told Kelly the horses were vegetarian.
