A MAN went on a drunken rampage after drowning his sorrows over losing his horse named Elvis in the break-up with his partner.

William Moran got boozed up the day after Valentine’s Day – while struggling with the fallout of his split from Francine McDonald.

The couple were the proud owners of several snakes, dogs and horses – including Elvis which has his own Facebook page.

And losing contact with the animals as a result of the “divorce” proved to be too much for Moran.

Paisley Sheriff Court heard yesterday how he damaged property, was caught drinking in the street, acted aggressive­ly and shouted and swore at police officers. He committed the offences in his home town of Paisley on February 15 this year – just days after he’d been released early from a previous sentence.

Moran pleaded guilty to three charges – vandalism, drinking in the street and behaving in a threatenin­g or abusive way. Moran, who remains remanded in custody, will learn his fate next month.
