THE case of a woman who jumped from a bridge over the A50 after she allegedly stabbed a man to death has been adjourned.

Sabina Ericksson, aged 40, of County Cork, is accused of the murder of 54-year-old Glen Hollinshead.

Mr Hollinshead was found dead at the back of his home in Duke Street, Fenton, on May 20 last year.

Ericksson appeared at Stoke-on-Trent Crown Court yesterday via video-link from Bronzefield prison in Middlesex.

The court heard her psychiatric report has been delayed because the doctor compiling it is struggling to obtain Ericksson's medical records from Sweden.

Judge Simon Tonking ordered that Ericksson must appear before him at Stafford Crown Court no later than March 31.
