Three individuals have entered guilty pleas relating to a stabbing that occurred at a recreation ground in Oxfordshire during the spring.
Tao Mitchell, aged 23 and residing at Blackburn Close in Headington, appeared alongside Giuseppe Spinelli, 40, whose address is listed as Field Street in Bicester, and Kabir Rao, 23, who has no permanent residence.
All three attended Oxford Crown Court on October 5, where they had been scheduled to stand trial on various counts linked to the assault.
The case concerns an attack at Pingle Field in Bicester that took place on April 7 this year.
When initially brought before the court in May, the trio had rejected the charges connected to the stabbing.
The defendants had previously entered not guilty pleas on May 8 to a charge of wounding with intent under Section 18, along with an alternative count of unlawful wounding under Section 20.
However, during the October 5 appearance, all three altered their positions and admitted to the lesser offence of unlawful wounding.
Mitchell and Rao additionally entered guilty pleas to charges of carrying a blade in a public setting.
Mitchell separately admitted possessing cocaine with the intention of distributing it.
Spinelli continued to maintain his previous guilty plea covering multiple offences, including knife possession, possession of an expandable baton, intent to supply cocaine, cannabis possession, and holding criminal property in the form of ten thousand pounds in cash.
The more serious Section 18 charge will be left on record, as will the knife possession matter.
Rao confessed to violating the terms of a suspended sentence originally imposed for heroin and Class B drug supply offences.
His breach will be addressed alongside sentencing for all three defendants.
The court received no requests for pre-sentence reports from the defence teams, and prosecutors indicated no victim impact statements were anticipated.
Justice Lamb ordered all three held in custody pending their sentencing hearing on October 30, which is expected to run for approximately ninety minutes.
Addressing the defendants, the judge stated that she was confident they understood the gravity of the matters before them.
