Violent thug stabbed a drug dealer five times with a kitchen knife just 11 days after being released from prison.
Kevin Summers attacked Patrick Forest after an argument over a £1,500 drug debt, at a house in Green Lane, Derby Crown Court heard.However, the 39-year-old was sentenced to serve just 16 months in prison yesterday after a judge ruled he had not intended to carry out the attack.Prosecutor Emma Cutts told the court that Mr Forest had produced a knife but Summers managed to turn it back on him and stab him three times in the chest, as well as in his neck and arm.Summers left Mr Forest to stagger 300 yards to Hartington House homeless centre, in Hartington Street, where staff called an ambulance.Judge Andrew Hamilton told Summers: "You got the upper hand and caused him some injuries which were beyond what was required to defend yourself."You have a bad record and you were only released on licence a few days beforehand. However I accept you didn't go there armed and you didn't intend to cause serious injury."Mr Forest, 45, needed emergency surgery for a collapsed lung at Nottingham City Hospital's critical care unit.Summers, who has 25 previous convictions dating back to 1986, including assault, robbery and burglary, was released on August 16 last year and stabbed Mr Forest on August 27.Miss Cutts said: "There was a discussion about the debt and how it was going to be paid. An argument broke out near to the kitchen. Mr Summers became aware Mr Forest had a knife.He [Summers] grabbed him by the wrist and managed to turn the knife on Mr Forest."Errol Ballantyne, for Summers, said: "It was Mr Fellows who made this first violent threatening move. He [Summers] genuinely feels if he had put up no resistance at all he would have been seriously injured or dead."Mr Ballantyne said his client had been determined to "start anew" on his release from jail and had only gone round to Mr Foster's house to sort out his debt and "make sure Mr Foster didn't keep coming after him".Summers, of Drewry Lane, Derby, pleaded guilty to unlawful wounding at an earlier hearing.No evidence was offered on a charge of wounding with intent.
