Professor Green Appears In Court

Anthony Jones, 25, is on trial accused of attacking the star with a broken bottle during an altercation at Cargo nightclub in Shoreditch, east London.

Prosecutors allege Jones lashed out at the rapper - real name Stephen Manderson - after he accidentally jostled one of the accused's friends.

Green was left gushing blood from a large wound in his neck and he took the stand at Snaresbrook Crown Court on Tuesday (19Oct10) to tell how he feared for his life during the incident.

He told the court, "I was scared. Having been cut in the neck - I know what tends to happen when people get cut in the neck. I was extremely lucky. I phoned my mother and grandmother and said goodbye. I had been stabbed in my neck."

Jones denies wounding with intent. The trial continues.
