A MAN has admitted killing a Kendal woman by stabbing her with a samurai sword before running her over.
Hugh Bradford Penrose, 36, pleaded guilty at Newcastle Crown Court yesterday to murdering Carie Burns during a violent attack at a party in Consett, County Durham, last May.
Penrose was due to be tried but entered his guilty plea before any jury was sworn in.
He will be sentenced on February 21.
