Four teenagers have admitted taking part in an "appalling" mob attack on three women at a retail park that left one of the victims with a broken jaw.
A 14-year-old boy, who can’t be named for legal reasons, pleaded guilty at Cheshire Youth Court in Warrington on Wednesday, April 5, to Section 20 assault grievous bodily harm (GBH) over the assault on a 20-year-old woman at the entry to Trident Park in Runcorn at 9.50pm on Saturday, May 14, last year. The youth was acquitted of the more serious charge of Section 18 GBH with intent, with no evidence offered.
Court papers said the youth was remanded on bail with a 7pm to 7am electronically-monitored curfew to await sentence on May 25. He was also banned from contacting the three victims in the case and barred from entering Runcorn McDonald’s, Asda, Trident Park and Shopping City.
