A Ripon man appeared in court today charged with attempted murder.

Kyle Harpin, 33, of Priest Lane, was charged with attempting to murder Ben Mintcher on North Street on October 16 last year.

He pleaded not guilty at Leeds Crown Court, where the case was adjourned.

Harpin today pleaded guilty to six other charges, including possessing a knife on North Street in Ripon, two charges of threatening a person with a blade or sharply pointed article in public, two charges of assaulting a police constable at Harrogate District Hospital, and racially aggravated harassment of another police officer at Harrogate Police Station.

He will be sentenced for these crimes on February 21.
