The ODT reports the 42-year-old appeared in the Dunedin District Court this afternoon, facing four charges of attempted murder after allegedly attacking two staff members and a married couple at the Cumberland Street Countdown yesterday.
The man appeared in the dock wearing a white cover-all garment, bare-footed with a white plaster on his right forearm.
He stood with his head bowed in the dock -- only looking up when the judge addressed him.
He's entered no plea and will keep name suppression until his next appearance before the High Court next month.
No formal mental-health assessment was sought.
