A man's been banned from buying alcohol as he awaits trial over an allegation he sent a menacing message to emergency services.
55 year old Jonathan Richard Fletcher of Mona Street in Douglas appeared before magistrates at Douglas courthouse.
He denies sending the message on April 26.
Magistrates bailed him with conditions not to call 999 unless in an emergency, and not to buy alcohol or drink it in public.
He'll next appear on November 7.
