SNS GroupA teenage boy has admitted robbing a drum from a club employee before a Rangers and St Johnstone match.
The 17-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, assaulted a Saints supporters liaison officer at Hampden Park on August 17 last year.
Court papers state that the boy, while acting with another person wearing a face covering, ran towards the woman and seized hold of a drum she was carrying.
The charge says that the boy dragged her by the drum, which caused her to fall and strike her head on the ground.
The paper goes on to state that the teenager then robbed the woman of a drum.
He also pleaded guilty to behaving in a threatening or abusive manner.
The charge says that the teenager was part of a disorderly crowd, repeatedly shouted, swore and challenged others to fight.
Papers further state he uttered offensive remarks and threats of violence.
The Crown accepted a plea of not guilty to a charge that said the boy resisted, obstructed or hindered two police officers in the execution of their duty.
It was said he ran away from the constables and struggled with them.
The sentence was deferred pending background reports until next month, when more information regarding the circumstances will be heard.
Sheriff Jonathan Guy granted the boy, of Coatbridge, Lanarkshire, bail meantime.
