He was ordered to return to Mold Crown Court for sentencing on Thursday, August 22.

His Honour Judge Rhys Rowlands told the Leighton View man that his guilty plea was "important and attracts credit".

"I have ordered a full pre-sentence report, but you mustn't read into that," the judge said.

"All sentencing options including custody are on the table. You will get credit so there will be a reduction for pleading guilty."

Trow was granted unconditional bail not to contact Mr Owen.
