A knifeman slashed his partner's son to the face when he kicked down the door after turning up to visit his mum. David Bradley, 57, left the man with potentially life-threatening injuries after grabbing a kitchen knife and stabbing him to the face.
He collapsed in the ambulance and was given blood as he was rushed to hospital. Bradley said the man had 'shot his boy', referring to a friend of his.
Manchester Crown Court heard that the victim had previously convicted of attempted murder in 2002 and sentenced to 15 years in prison. After turning up at the flat in Wythenshawe in February last year, he had accused Bradley of stealing a letter from him.
