An Ayrshire surgeon has found himself in the dock for the second time in a year facing domestic abuse charges.
A concerned neighbour called the police on Itamar Felsenstein, a surgeon at Kilmarnock's Crosshouse Hospital, after they heard him acting in an aggressive manner and repeatedly shouting towards his 76-year-old wife of 34 years at his former Ayr home on Inverkar Road on April 25.

He said: “For the second time within a year, Mr Felsenstein finds himself in court.
“The offence itself was nothing involving violence, it involved shouting.”

Puerto Rican news outlet, El Vocero, reported that it came from someone Martin had dated for seven months.According to the petitioner, Martin has denied their breakup for two months now and he has been seen wandering near their home at least three times.
reported Saturday that the order states that Martin and the other person dated for seven months. The outlet quotes the order as saying they broke up two months ago — but that the petitioner alleges Martin did not accept the separation, and has loitered near the petitioner’s home at least three times.“The petitioner fears for his safety,” El Vocero quoted the order as saying.Valencia said that the order bars the “Livin’ la Vida Loca” singer from contacting or calling the person who filed it, and that a judge will later decide during a hearing if the order should stay in place or be lifted.Valencia noted that the person who filed for the restraining order did not contact police, which would have involved prosecutors determining if there was enough evidence to file charges.
