Knife-wielding women chased man around house before stabbing

Knife-wielding women chased man around house before stabbing Warren Harper had been drinking with Kelly Rees and former partner Demi Oliver before the attack, which saw him chased around the property in Milford Haven, Wales, and slashed with a Stanley knife A man hid in the bathroom as he was chased around a house by two women, one of them the mother of his child, before he was slashed and cut by both of them. Warren Harper had been drinking with his former partner Demi Oliver, aged 26, Kelly Rees, aged 36, at the time of the attack. Neighbours reported hearing loud voices and music after a night of drinking at the property in Precelly Place in Milford Haven, Wales. The trio were known to each and lived near each other, Wales Online reports, with Oliver and Mr Harper having previously been in a relationship and had a child together. The attack, which took place on July 27, 2024, saw a terrified Mr Harper chased around the property and lock himself in the bathroom while both Oliver and Rees banged on the door. Prosecution barrister Dean Pullen told Swansea Crown Court that Mr Harper tried to leave the property but saw Rees - who had taken crack cocaine - standing in the kitchen with a knife in her hand. As he went to get his bag, Rees cut him on the wrist with a Stanley knife. He was also slashed by Oliver who was holding a different knife. Mr Pullen told the court that at this stage Harper ran upstairs and contemplated trying to escape via a window. Deciding it was too high to jump, he went back downstairs and managed to force his way out of the house while "bleeding profusely". He was taken to Withybush Hospital in Haverfordwest in an ambulance with stab wounds to his wrist and arm and later required surgery. Oliver and Rees both pleaded guilty to unlawful wounding and appeared for sentencing at Swansea Crown Court on Wednesday. Barristers David Singh and Ian Ibrahim offered mitigation for Oliver and Rees respectively but Judge Huw Rees warned that both defendants would face immediate custodial sentences, despite the incident happening two years ago. Judge Rees said: "The victim sustained very serious injuries, not a nick causing a superficial injury. They were two significant wounds to the victim's left wrist and arm." Oliver, of Precelly Place, Milford Haven, was jailed for 17 months. Rees, of Waterloo Road, Hakin, who is currently serving a custodial sentence for a robbery in Milford Haven, was jailed for a further 27 months.
