AN 18-year-old man has gone on trial accused of a racist attack at a Kassam Stadium car boot sale.
Kane Smith, of Dunnock Way, Greater Leys, denies two counts of racially aggravated assault by beating an Asian woman and her 15-year-old son at the event on July 4.
Kyron McFarlane, of Emperor Gardens, Greater Leys, earlier admitted the same charges and a racially aggravated public order offence.
The 20-year-old will be sentenced at the conclusion of Smith’s trial, which continues this week at Oxford Crown Court.
