A teenager has admitted stabbing two men in Liverpool city centre.
Ibrahim Sarjo today pleaded guilty to two counts of unlawful wounding and possession of a bladed article in a public place in connection with the incident on Queen Square on the evening of Friday, June 17. Emergency services rushed to the scene shortly after 7.30pm after receiving reports of a double stabbing, which allegedly came after a fight involving three men had broken out outside Yates bar.
Eyewitnesses claimed to have seen two men collapsed on the floor in the aftermath, having been stabbed in the chest and stomach. Liverpool Crown Court heard this morning, Thursday, that Sarjo was "subjected to racial abuse and pursued" before knifing the pair - who were named as Raymond Watkins and Anthony Sweeney.
