The car kicker was handed a community resolution, which is an informal non-statutory disposal often used in certain anti-social behaviour incidents. The offender accepts responsibility, and the views of the victim are taken into account when a resolution like this is used.
"The man was dealt with by means of Community Resolution whereby he must write a written apology letter to the vehicle owner, and attend an alcohol awareness course and a drug awareness course," the police spokesman said.
