Man to face trial after denying pensioner attack

A man has appeared in court following an attack on an 88-year-old man in Evesham, and will face trial later this year after he denied all charges.

Adrian Paskin, 40, of Murcot Turn, Broadway, has been charged with causing grievous bodily harm with intent, criminal damage and theft.

He was charged after an elderly man was attacked at Murcot Turn on 11 May.

Mr Paskin pleaded not guilty to all counts during a hearing at Worcester Crown Court. His trial was set for 27 October.
