Man, 43, to appear at Northampton Crown Court accused of slashing Morrisons worker with knife

A 43-year-old man will appear at Northampton Crown Court next month accused of five offences after a Morrisons staff member was slashed with a knife.

Brian Foley has been charged with Section 18 wounding with intent, making threats with an offensive weapon in a public place, making threats with a bladed article in a public place, and two counts of theft from a shop.

The charges relate to an incident at the Morrisons supermarket in Corby, on February 2 when a staff member allegedly challenged a man believed to be shoplifting.

Northampton magistrates remanded Foley, of Corby, in custody until April 27.
