The jury has been discharged in the trial of a 14-year-old girl who stabbed two teachers and a pupil.
Teachers Fiona Elias and Liz Hopkin, as well as a pupil at Ysgol Dyffryn Aman in Ammanford, Carmarthenshire, were taken to hospital after the incident on 24 April.
The girl, who cannot be named due to her age, admitted the triple stabbing but denied attempted murder.
The jury at Swansea Crown Court were sent out for deliberations on Tuesday but were discharged by Judge Paul Thomas KC on Wednesday morning, with a retrial set to begin on 27 January.
The judge said it was “profound and very unsatisfactory to discharge the jury, especially for the 14-year-old who will have to stand trial again”.
