A teenager stabbed two men after they hurled "ugly and shameful" racial abuse at him and chased him through Liverpool city centre.
Anthony Sweeney shouted "if I catch you, you black b*****d, I'm going to kill you" as he and Raymond Watkins pursued Ibrahim Sarjo through Queen Square Bus Station. The then 18-year-old subsequently pulled a knife from his pocket and left the pair with wounds which kept them in hospital for more than a week.
Liverpool Crown Court heard today, Friday, that the incident occurred at around 7.30pm on Friday, June 17. Frank Dillon, prosecuting, described how "it was in broad daylight and in clear sight of many members of the public present".
