Tensions came to a head when they bumped into each other in a Tesco car park in Barrhead, Renfrewshire, and Ms Baird and Mercer began arguing.

Ms Baird, from the town, said the problem had been going on for five years.

She told Paisley Justice of the Peace Court: “I said I wouldn’t stop phoning the police because of the racket going on above me — I couldn’t sleep.

"I said, ‘I’m three months pregnant’ and he said, ‘In that case your boyfriend’s car is getting it.’ I said, ‘Don’t threaten me,’ and he said, ‘It’s not a threat.’”

Mercer, 27, denied behaving in a threatening or abusive manner by shouting, swearing, acting in an aggressive manner and making threats during the incident in April 2016.

JP Jane McIndoe said there was no case to answer and cleared Mercer.

As he left the dock, he said: “Thanks for that. Have a nice day.”
