A man accused of murdering a teenager told a court he picked up a plank of wood, not to attack the boy, but in case his co-defendants attacked him.
Harry Baker, 17, from Cardiff, was stabbed nine times in a shipping container yard in August 2019.
At Newport Crown Court, six men and a boy, who cannot be identified for legal reasons, deny murder.
Defendant Ryan Palmer, 34, told the jury on Wednesday he had no intention of harming Mr Baker.
He said he joined the group of defendants that chased Mr Baker to the docks because he had bought drugs off two of them but not received them.
