A few days later the defendant ran up to a vehicle that was in the forecourt of a petrol station, throwing a brick through an open window and hitting the victim in the head; he then stabbed the victim with a large knife multiple times. Aggravating features included the use of extreme violence, serious injury caused to victim, and the use of weapon.
