Man in court over threats to kill

A 32-year-old man has been ordered, as a condition of bail, to see his doctor to get help for mental health issues.

David Howard Mallon, of Mosley Park, appeared at Londonderry Magistrates Court charged with making threats to kill and assaulting his partner.

He also faced the same charges in relation to his partner's daughter and brother. The incident is alleged to have happened on 20 May.

Mr Mallon was told to have no contact with his partner or her family.

District Judge Barney McElholm also said he was to immediately see his doctor and accept any treatment he saw fit for his mental health issues.

Police did not oppose the bail application and Mr Mallon will appear in court again on 24 June.
