A TEENAGER who threatened a man with a kitchen knife leaving him worried he could be harmed has appeared in court.

Jayden Yexley appeared in court following the incident on Fulmer Drive in Hythe on February 6.

The court heard how the 19-year-old threatened a man with a kitchen knife in such a way that he thought he might be harmed.

Appearing at Southampton Magistrates' Court on April 20, he admitted one charge of threatening a person with a blade.

Yexley, of Sandilands Way, Hythe, was committed to crown court for sentencing on conditional bail until the next hearing on May 11.
