A MAN accused of threatening to kill someone in West Swindon is to face trial by judge and jury.

Ciaran Price, 23, is also accused of a public order offence in relation to an alleged incident in Holinshed Place, Grange Park, late on Friday, October 2, into the following day.

Price pleaded not guilty to charges of affray, threats to kill and possessing a bladed article when he appeared at Swindon Crown Court.

Judge Peter Blair QC adjourned the case to Tuesday, April 19, 2016 and released Price, of Wood Street, Royal Wootton Bassett, on bail.

It was the second visit to the courts this week for Price, who is accused of fly-tipping at Hackpen Hill.
