PSYCHIATRIC reports were requested yesterday after a man admitted drink-driving and other offences.

Patrick Kenneally, 30, of Station Road, Scorton, near Richmond, North Yorkshire, admitted dangerous driving, being two-and-a-half times over the drink-drive limit and having no insurance.

Teesside Crown Court heard the offences had all taken place on February 3 - some in the street where Kenneally lives.

Greg Purcell, in mitigation, told the court that because of observations about his behaviour made by the police at the time the defendant was arrested, he said he would be asking for a psychiatric report to be prepared.

Recorder Julian Goose asked for pre-sentence reports to be prepared and told Kenneally he would be sentenced on July 12. Kenneally was released on conditional bail.
