Christopher Sheridan, of Ketley Bank in Telford, changed his plea on the day a trial was set to start at Shrewsbury Crown Court.

He pleaded guilty to one count of assault occasioning actual bodily harm.

The attack was against Constable Bradley Milburn in Telford on September 18 last year.

Sheridan also stood accused of another count of wounding with intent, but pleaded not guilty to this charge at the hearing.

Prosecutor Mr Walter Bealby agreed that this count would lie on file at the court hearing in Shrewsbury on Tuesday.

Judge Peter Barrie adjourned sentencing until the week of November 16.
