A drunken man who had downed 10 cans of Stella Artois and half a bottle of Southern Comfort pointed a 12-inch kitchen knife at his girlfriend, and in a scuffle with the blade, her hand was cut.
Oliver Shipley, 31, of Star Hill Road, Driffield, later told police that he "meant to stab her", in the incident on October 1 last year, reported HullLive.
Hull Crown Court heard how the girlfriend tried to grab the blade from Shipley after he emerged with a knife and cut her hand.
