Jailed: Llewellyn Newth
A CARLISLE man who stabbed a stranger for no reason on a city street has been jailed for five years.
Llewellyn Newth, 44, was sentenced at Carlisle Crown Court today after he admitted three offences: intentionally wounding a man on October 28 last year; possessing a bladed article in a public place without good reason; and an assault causing actual bodily harm on a separate occasion.
Newth, of Esther Street, Currock, Carlisle, will have to serve a two-year licence extension after the expiry of his five year prison term, meaning he will remain at risk of recall to prison.
