A man accused of two assaults on women and stealing prescription drugs has been bailed.

Dyllan Berry of Lord Street in Douglas appeared before High Bailiff Jayne Hughes at Douglas Courthouse via a live video link from prison.

The 24-year-old admitted stealing eight diazepam tablets and possessing the drug, but denies two counts of assault.

He was bailed in the sum of £500 on condition he doesn't contact witnesses, doesn't enter licensed premises and doesn't purchase alcohol or consume it in public.

He'll appear in court again on February 22.
