A man 'slashed' three innocent men with a sharply pointed weapon in an unprovoked attack, a court heard. The three men were enjoying a night out when Kyle Newell, aged 34, confronted them in St James' Street, in Nottingham city centre.
Police said he then slashed the three men with a weapon in a 'frenzied and unprovoked attack' in February this year. One of the victims required 100 stitches to a wound to the back of his head, whilst his other two victims were treated for serious lacerations to their faces, leaving them permanently scarred.
Newell fled the scene and disposed of his clothing, weapon and phone on February 19, Nottinghamshire Police said. The weapon used was never found.
