A MAN is behind bars after appearing in court in relation to an alleged 'assault' in Irvine.
Michael Gallagher made no plea during brief hearing held in private at Kilmarnock Sheriff Court on Monday, March 2.
The 40-year-old faced a single charge of assault to severe injury and impairment.
Gallagher, described as residing in Irvine, has now been committed for further examination and was remanded into custody. He is due to return to the dock in due course.
His appearance comes after police confirmed that a man had been arrested following an alleged incident on the town's Old Caley Road.
Officers were called to reports of an 'assault' within a property in the area shortly after midnight on Thursday, February 26.
Another male was subsequently taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow for treatment.
