AN Andover man is due to appear in Winchester Crown Court after pleading guilty to having a kitchen knife on him in Asda car park on 13 July.

Damian Anthony Wernham of Winchester Road indicated a plea of guilty when he appeared in front of Basingstoke Magistrates last week.

On 13 July the 21-year-old was found to have 'without good reason or lawful authority, in a public place an article which had a blade', namely a 5" kitchen knife.

He has been bailed prior to a court appearance at Winchester Crown Court on Tuesday 4 August.
