A 30-year-old man who was shouting and swearing at staff and refusing to leave the Translink station in Ballymena claimed he was streaming the incident on Facebook Live.

Robert Corrie McHenry, with an address on a charge sheet given as Mosside near Ballymoney, was "pacing around" whilst holding his phone.

He refused to leave despite being asked to do so "multiple" times. When police arrived he refused to get into a PSNI car.

He admitted being disorderly and resisting a police officer on August 1, 2024.

A defence solicitor said the defendant now lives with a relative. He said the defendant had a record and a "drugs issue" at the time of the Ballymena incident.

The court was told about a month ago the defendant was "attacked" in Belfast city centre when he was "homeless" and "ended up on life support".

He is now "drug free" and back living with a relative. The defendant was given a one month prison term, suspended for a year.
