A MAN has been charged with threatening to kill two children.

Tommy Addison, 18, of Nant Y Dderwen in Drefach, appeared at Swansea Crown Court charged with four offences.

It was alleged that Addison threatened to kill the two youths – a boy and a girl – on March 26 in the Drefach area.

He was further accused of having an imitation firearm – a BB gun – which he was alleged to have used to make the children believe that violence would be used against them.

He pleaded not guilty to two charges of possessing an imitation firearm with intent to cause fear or violence, and two charges of making threats to kill.

David Singh, defending, said: “He’s adamant that he did not carry out the allegations.

“He believes he wasn’t actually there at the property.”

Addison will face a trial on July 29, and was remanded in to custody until that date.
