Mason Clague and an unidentified male attacked the 12-year-old boy at a birthday gathering for his eight-year-old sister.
A court heard how Mason Clague, 22, stands accused of stabbing the boy in his gran's back garden, in Southport Road, Bootle, during a party for his eight-year-old sister, on April 7 2021.
Prosecutor Charlotte Atherton opened proceedings and said: "On April 7 2021, a 12-year-old boy was chased by two men into the garden of his nan's house, where his younger sister was having a bouncy castle birthday, He was attacked, punched to the ground, and then stabbed multiple times to his leg and buttock area. The prosecution's case is that Mason Clague was one of the men who did that.
The prosecution allege that Clague and the second unidentified male then chased the pair back into to his gran's garden. She said: "The boy described being stabbed as feeling like a 'poke' in the leg and when he was asked about the attack, he said actually he thought both men had stabbed him because after being stabbed by the unknown male and getting up, he felt another poke in his leg, which he thinks was the defendant stabbing him also."
