A 34-year-old woman has been handed an eight-week curfew for assault.

Kimberly Louise Gibbon, of Crummock Avenue, Whitehaven, pleaded guilty at West Cumbria Magistrates’ Court yesterday.

The court heard Gibbon assaulted David Muir on November 20 last year at Whitehaven.

Gibbon must also pay costs of £300 and a £90 victim surcharge.
