Shane Lewis, 35, of Marlborough Road, Kirkby was arrested following an incident last month in which a woman was left with wounds to her hands and other parts of her body.

Police and the ambulance service were called to the property on Barnes Crescent, Sutton, on the evening of August 11 and the victim, who is in her 30s, was taken to hospital but later discharged.

He is being held on remand until that time.
