THIS week’s Crime Files is from April 2019, when a convicted drug dealer hacked his former girlfriend s new partner in the head and body with an axe in front of a screaming four-year-old child. Ross Corbett admitted section 18 wounding (with intent) following the attack in Rynal Street, Evesham on his ex’s new partner, Gareth Lewis. The 30-year-old was jailed for six years at Worcester Crown Court following the attack on September 1 2018. Part of the attack was captured on CCTV outside the victim’s home address which was played to the judge. Paul Whitfield, prosecuting, said Mr Lewis was in a relationship with Corbett’s ex, Tara Ballard, and saw them together at the Ambassador Club in Evesham at around 7.30pm.
