A WITNESS has described the horrifying aftermath of a stabbing which left the 'pregnant' victim covered in blood.

The eyewitness, who did not see the attack itself, described the victim of Ross Dutfield clutching her bleeding neck in Staplow Road, Worcester before she banged on a door, seeking help.

Wishing to remain anonymous, the eyewitness said: "She was covered in blood smeared all over her face and hair.

"She banged on the door- I don't think the person who helped her knew her.

"She had smeared blood on the cars in the drive and on the house's porch and front door.

"The man came out and immediately gave first aid by applying pressure to the source of the bleeding which was her neck.

"I offered to help, I was nearby and another person called the ambulance. I heard her say that she was pregnant and that she had been in the car when the man started to stab her in the neck with a screwdriver four or five times in the neck.

"The wounds were not life-threatening but I could see that she was bleeding a lot and the towels the man was using were stopping the bleeding but were wet through with blood. The ambulance arrived quickly within about four or five minutes and two or three police cars as well.

"I believe the public has a right to know that this man is dangerous. To attack a pregnant woman is disgraceful."

Ross Dutfield admitted a string of offences at Worcester Crown Court on Tuesday, September 6 including attempted wounding with intent and aggravating vehicle taking after he crashed a car. 

The 29-year-old of St Wulfstan's Crescent, near Wyld's Lane, Worcester, appeared over videolink from HMP Hewell.

He admitted five counts, all from Saturday, August 6, including attempting to wound with intent a 23-year-old woman.

We have previously reported how Dutfield was arrested following an attack in the city's Staplow Road, near Spetchley Road.

The particulars of the most serious charge, read out in court, were that he attempted to unlawfully and maliciously wound his victim with intent to cause her grievous bodily harm. 

A man was initially arrested on suspicion of attempted murder following a reported stabbing at about 9pm. A weapon was recovered from the scene.

Dutfield further admitted aggravated vehicle taking of a Seat Ibiza which he took without the consent of the owner. Before it was recovered the vehicle was involved in an accident which caused damage to the car.

Dutfield admitted assault occasioning actual bodily harm on the same victim by 'pulling a large clump of her hair from her scalp'.

He also admitted a second count of ABH, also against the same victim, which involved 'punching her to the face and head', driving while disqualified on Spetchley Road and the B4084 and driving without insurance.

Judge Nicolas Cartwright listed the case for an hour-long sentence hearing on November 17 'not before 2pm.'

Judge Cartwright said the pre-sentence report, prepared by the probation service, must include 'an assessment of dangerousness'.
