A MAN who took part in an attack at Melksham skatepark has been remanded in custody.
Jack Isaacs, 20, admitted causing grievous bodily harm to Hereward Newton-Edwards on Friday May 28. He was one of a gang of four youths who launched the attack at the Bath Road site before fleeing.
Isaacs changed his plea on the morning of his trial and appeared at Swindon Crown Court in custody on Tuesday.
Another man, 18-year-old Steven Robins, had already pleaded guilty to being involved in the attack at a court hearing in December.
Robins, of Bowmans Court, is on bail at a hostel in Gloucester.
Two youths had been charged with causing grievous bodily harm with intent but pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of grievous bodily harm.
One youth was supposed to live with a friend's family in Woodstock Gardens and report to the police station once a week.
But he broke both conditions and has been remanded in custody until sentencing.
The cases against both youths were adjourned to next month.
