A man named Ronald McDonald has breached a restraining order by walking into McDonald's.

McDonald, who shares the same name as the mascot for the fast-food restaurant chain, had been banned from contacting his estranged wife.

However, the 50-year-old from Westgate followed his former partner into McDonald's and texted her, thus breaching bail conditions.

Prosecutor Julie Farbrace stated: "Mr McDonald followed his ex-wife along a number of streets. She parked in McDonald's in Westwood Cross and he followed her in.

"She then drove into Tesco. It was then that she herself went into a petrol station and he approached the car."

McDonald received a suspended 86-day jail sentence and was ordered to complete a domestic abuse programme, as well as pay £180 in court costs and victim surcharges.
