Machete teen who hurled threats awaits his fate from Wigan justices

A Wigan teenager has been convicted of hurling threats and being armed with a machete.

Callum Cox, 18, of Belle Green Lane, Ince, had denied threatening unlawful violence and having the sheathed blade in a Premier Express Store in Leigh on May 4 last year.

But after a trial at the borough's magistrates' court he was found guilty of both counts.

He was remanded in custody pending sentence.
