A 14-year-old boy armed himself with a knife to protect his disabled sister as a group of thugs smashed up his family home.
The boy had been watching television in the living room at his home in Middleton Park Mount in Leeds on October 4 last year when Daniel Clough, Alexander Buckley and two others began attacking.
The teenager's mother, her partner, and his older brother and his pregnant partner were all in bed. Leeds Crown Court heard on Friday how the boy's mum was woken by shouts at the front of the house.
