East Tyrone Magistrate’s Court how, around midnight on October 4, police were on Molesworth Street in Cookstown when they observed two males helping an “extremely drunk female”, the defendant, Kirsty Magee, 29, of Millburn Close, across the road.
As they watched Ms Magee fell to the floor and the constables rushed to her aid where she was “going in and out of consciousness”.

Handing down a community service order of 120 hours for disorderly behaviour and an assault on police, District Judge John Meehan called the incident an “unsavoury matter”.
