Man admits terrifying spade attack in middle of Liverpool city centre

A man has admitted battering another man with a spade in a terrifying attack in Liverpool city centre.

James Coleman pleaded guilty to wounding, affray and possession of an offensive weapon this morning after the incident on Fleet Street on June 25 last year.

Another man, Anthony Hughes, has admitted wounding and affray during the same incident. A third man, Gary Ollard, has denied affray, possession of an offensive weapon and wounding linked to part of the wider incident and will face a trial next year.
