A wild streak
Police siege is sparked by boozed up brute in his pants
A security guard who rampaged through a town in just his pants before sparking a police siege has been caged for 18 months.
Almost naked Shaun Munro, 22, barricaded himself in a shop and held cops off by lobbing beer bottles at them.
He claimed his drink had been spiked at a bar – before stripping off and smashing windows of nearby homes.
The yob admitted terrorising families and locking himself in the store when he appeared in the dock at Ayr Sheriff Court yesterday.
Defence lawyer Terry Gallanagh compared his client’s actions to Mr T’s character in the A-Team who lost control because he was fed drugged milk when he was too scared to fly.
He said: “It isn’t quite BA Baracus and his milk from the A-Team – but it’s not far off it.
“He has absolutely no recollection of this.
“It is absolutely bizarre behaviour and the word ‘bizarre’ is repeatedly used
in his medical records.
“There were injuries to his legs, there was blood in his ears and he thought it was April.”
The court heard Munro ran down the street, smashing plant pots and even pushed his hands inside a family’s letterbox.
He even broke a window at a home and leapt inside and burst into the headquarters of Bowls Scotland in Ayr.
Munro forced his way into a shop next to a petrol station and bunkered down last October 1.
Police were forced to fall back after he started hurling bottles at them.
They stormed the building with riot shields and found Munro screaming: “I’m going to knife you, put holes in you, put bullets in your head and cut your throats.”
The brute started chanting pro-IRA songs after he was nabbed.
He was taken for hospital treatment but began lashing out at police and medics.
Doctors treated him for a large gash to his leg, which needed 10 stitches.
Munro maintains he moved to Ayr from Paisley’s Henderson Street to escape the bad influence of pals and had found work, including at Glastonbury and the Scottish Open golf championship.
He says had been drinking with his girlfriend at a pub when troubled flared with another group of revellers.
Mr Gallanagh revealed the situation was only calmed when the others bought a round of drinks – which he insists were spiked.
He added: “He had been out in Ayr at his partner’s uncle’s birthday party and they adjourned to another pub.
“There does seem to have been a controlling effect resulting in extremely bizarre behaviour.
“He moved to Ayr to get away from the crowd of friends he had built up in Paisley.”
Sheriff Desmond Leslie locked Munro up for the “bizarre sequence of events.”
