A WARRANT has been issued for a Tillicoultry woman being prosecuted for sheep worrying.

Joanna Sobczyk, of Marchglen, was due to be sentenced at Alloa Sheriff Court on Thursday but failed to appear.

On November 25 last year, on agricultural land at Glenfoot Farm, Tillicoultry, her dog entered a field, chased and bit sheep to their injury.

The 35-year-old will now traced by police and will appear before a sheriff for sentencing.
