A man's admitted causing actual bodily harm by attacking a man with a metal tube.
67-year-old Stephen Hodgson, of Glen Close in Glen Maye, appeared before Deputy High Bailiff Rachael Braidwood at Douglas Courthouse.
He admitted assault causing ABH at Kaneen's garage in Union Mills on September 14, when he used the bar to injure a man he suspected was a love rival - giving him a cut nose and swelling on his head.
Hodgson was bailed to appear in the Court of General Gaol Delivery on October 11.
