A man will face trial accused of two counts of attempted murder following an incident in a village near Harrogate.

The man, in his 40s, appeared at Leeds Crown Court today when he pleaded not guilty to two counts of attempted murder. The alleged victims cannot be named for legal reasons.

The defendant, of Otley Road, Beckwithsaw, was arrested following an incident in the village on June 20 last year.

Mrs Justice Lambert adjourned the case for a trial at the same court on March 27. It’s expected to last five days.
