The news that Jonny is still a Red, and is our new head of loans and pathways, thus calling time on his playing career, was warmly welcomed by fans and peers alike, recognising the defender’s illustrious 19-year career.
Evans played for United 241 times across two stints and won the Premier League three times, the Champions League and the FA Cup.
He now embarks on a new chapter of his career, off the pitch, to assist in the development of players coming through our ranks in the same way he did back in 2006.
And he does so with the full backing of United, our fans, and clubs for whom he previously turned out for across his playing days.
For BlocBoy JB, who worked for years to land a smash on the charts, being a one-hit wonder was a blessing: “Look Alive,” his 2018 smash with Drake, turned him into a sought-after rapper and producer, and he collaborated afterward with Childish Gambino on “This Is America.” For Taylor Gayle Rutherfurd, or GAYLE, who wrote 2022’s kiss-off “abcdefu” in the tradition of CeeLo Green and Harry Nilsson, it was not all roses — TikTokers bullied her for her success, saying, “You don’t deserve to be here.”
Here at Billboard, we view being a one-hit wonder as an achievement, and not just for the streaming, sales and airplay: So many songs that fall into this category are classics in their own right, and it’s only a coincidence of timing, culture and business that their performers did not manage more hits. Anyway, unless you’re a baseball pitcher, being a one-hit wonder is better than being a no-hit wonder.
Below are the 25 most-consumed one-hit wonders of the 21st century, from mass viral crazes like Baauer’s “Harlem Shake” (which peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100) and Silento’s “Watch Me” (No. 3 Hot 100 peak) to unexpected lightning bolts like Passenger’s busking signature “Let Her Go” (No. 5) to more broadly successful artists who just happened to moonlight on the Hot 100 like Steve Lacy (“Bad Habit,” No. 1), Jimmy Eat World (“The Middle,” No. 5) and Glass Animals (“Heat Waves,” which hit No. 1 and set an all-time record, too).
Wear a helmet, do the stanky legg and scream “abcdefu” at somebody while reading this.
This list includes acts that have logged exactly one Hot 100 hit, in a lead role, between charts dated Jan. 1, 2000, and Dec. 28, 2024. Songs are ranked based on performance on the chart in that span via an inverse point system, with weeks at No. 1 earning the greatest value and weeks at No. 100 earning the least. Due to changes in chart methodology over the years, eras are weighted to account for different chart turnover rates over various periods.
R. City feat. Adam Levine, “Locked Away”
Timothy and Theron Thomas, brothers from Saint Thomas in the Virgin Islands, had a father who spent five years in prison and hoarded weed in the family closet — and he inspired “Locked Away.” R. City rose to “the No. 1 group in the whole Virgin Islands,” Theron told The Fader. An album on Akon’s Interscope imprint went nowhere, so they shifted to writing for other singers, and Levine came calling. The result, a piano ballad interspersed with “skiddly don don don dyne” dancehall chanting, landed at No. 6 in 2015. “‘Locked Away’ is Caribbean music,” Theron Thomas said. “The only thing pop about it is Adam Levine.”
Capital Cities, “Safe and Sound”
That. Trumpet. Riff. “It took 10 different versions before we finally came to what you hear on the radio now, where we decided to add a trumpet for the main bridge part, which I think was one of our best decisions on the song,” Ryan Merchant, half of the Los Angeles duo Capital Cities, told Billboard.You think? Merchant and Sebu Simonian, who’d started out working on Hallmark and Honda ad campaigns, signed with Capitol Records (of course). “Safe and Sound” hit No. 8 in 2013.
GAYLE, “abcdefu”
After watching Taylor Swift perform at her hometown Nissan Stadium in Nashville, 14-year-old Taylor Gayle Rutherfurd and her best friend Sara Davis wrote this eff-you-everybody anthem in Rutherfurd’s bedroom. After it went viral on TikTok in 2021, her label, Atlantic Records, put out the version with the full electronic production. Thus began a backlash, then a backlash-to-the-backlash, drawing attention and pushing the song that Rutherfurd “made very lightheartedly as a joke with one of my best friends,” as she told Teen Vogue, to a No. 3 peak in March 2022.
Masked Wolf, “Astronaut in the Ocean”
In 2014, the rapper born Harry Michael sold $10 copies of his album to passers-by in his hometown of Sydney, Australia, where he worked as a printer salesman and digital consultant for businesses. Five years later, he scrawled lyrics and scatted in his car for what became “Astronaut in the Ocean,” a fast-rapping track over a laconic beat that rhymes the title with “slow-motion.” It hit No. 6 in 2021, allowing the rapper to keep making albums and collaborate with singer Bebe Rexha and rapper Lecrae.
Tones and I, “Dance Monkey”
Even Tones and I’s manager was skeptical that “Dance Monkey,” which the singer born Toni Watson had been busking daily in her native Australia, would ever hit the radio. She’d had a minor hit with “Johnny Run Away,” and he told her, “What happened with ‘Johnny’ was a freak thing.” But with a “tad” of production to “make it sound shinier,” as Tones and I told Billboard, the low-key, pulsating track with the cartoonish voice hit No. 4 in 2020.
BlocBoy JB feat. Drake, “Look Alive”
With a video starring Drake in a white-and-gold tracksuit bouncing frenetically in a gym, the gently hypnotic “Look Alive” turned Memphis rapper BlocBoy JB into a star. He was ready for it: “I’ve always been saying, ‘One day. This is my year.’ 2012, my year. 2013, my year,” he told Billboard in 2018 when “Look Alive” hit No. 5. After “Look Alive,” Childish Gambino invited BlocBoy JB to rap on 2018’s Hot 100 No. 1 “This Is America” — in which the star did the shoot dance, derived from BlocBoy JB’s 2017 mixtape hit “Shoot.”
Alex Clare, “Too Close”
Combining dubstep and the classic Nirvana trick of building from soft verses to massive choruses, this British 27-year-old songwriter took off when Microsoft put “Too Close” into Internet Explorer 9 commercials. Clare, an orthodox Jew, had released his debut The Lateness of the Hour, but it didn’t sell, so he moved to Israel. “I had lost everything. I lost my record deal. I lost a lot,” he told Resident. “The song changed my life.” It hit No. 7 in 2012.
Kevin Lyttle feat. Spragga Benz, “Turn Me On”
Capitalizing on the sound of Sean Paul’s smash singles in the early 2000s, 26-year-old St. Vincent native Lyttle signed to Atlantic Records and attempted to steer Caribbean soca music into the next dancehall craze. “Soca has been around forever but hadn’t been done in a crossover manner,” he told Billboard. “I’m trying to do it like dancehall so people can access it.” “Turn Me On” turned out to be a one-single soca boom, hitting No. 4 in 2004 and launching the Kevin Lyttle album into the Billboard 200’s top 10.
The salsa-flavored song from Disney’s animated hit Encanto soundtrack hit No. 1 after the family film premiered on Disney+ on Christmas Eve 2021 — something Lin-Manuel Miranda, who wrote all eight songs in the film and on its soundtrack, predicted. “I knew it would get a bump on Disney+,” he told Billboard‘s Pop Shop podcast. “Because I watched that happen with Moana. Like, Moana became a prime babysitting tool for people.”
Baauer, “Harlem Shake”
The Brooklyn DJ released this EDM track with a beat drop for the ages on a free website with little fanfare in summer 2012, but by early the next year, skydivers, underwater stormtroopers, newscasters, Power Rangers, Fat Joe, Jimmy Fallon, Stephen Colbert and some 100,000 others (often in helmets or masks) were performing its wild, crowd-sourced dance. The track benefited from a Billboard chart-data change allowing YouTube plays, and it hit No. 1 for five weeks starting in March 2013. Baauer, born Harry Bauer Rodrigues, did little promotion post-“Shake”; he just kept on making dance music, returning to the charts with a handful of titles, including AA, which hit No. 3 on Top Dance Albums.
Portugal. The Man, “Feel It Still”
With a melody lifted from the Marvelettes’ “Please Mr. Postman” and a rebellious lyric inspired by comedian George Carlin, these Alaska-born, Portland, Ore.-based alt-rock heroes went minimal for this wispy rock song with spaghetti-western guitar. It hit No. 4 in 2017, and singer John Gourley told Billboard: “Because we get played on the radio and have a Vitaminwater ad with Aaron Paul dancing on a treadmill, people are going to say we sold out. I don’t write music for that. I write music for me.” The band soldiers on, having scored five top 10s on the Alternative Airplay chart.
Crazy Town, “Butterfly”
After a girlfriend informed Crazy Town frontman Shifty Shellshock his rap-rock lyrics were too misogynistic, he switched to love-song mode. “Instead of writing a male chauvinistic song, I was going to write something nice and sweet to a girl I cared about,” he told Billboard.The result was “Butterfly,” a sweet, laid-back anthem that became an inescapable MTV smash for the Limp Bizkit generation, hitting No. 1 for two weeks in 2001. Crazy Town’s story turned tragic: Adam Goldstein, or DJ AM, died in 2009 of an overdose and Shellshock, born Seth Binzer, died the same way in 2024 at 49.
D.R.A.M. feat. Lil Yachty, “Broccoli”
As “Broccoli” took off in 2016, the Virginia rapper whose “Cha Cha” inspired Drake’s blockbuster “Hotline Bling” gave Billboard a scoop: He loves actual broccoli, not just the kind that is a nickname for weed. “With some butter and some salt and pepper,” he said. “Mix it with the rice, whatever the meat is.” His modest intentions for “Broccoli” were to make it “just lit for the culture, lit for SoundCloud, for the Internet,” D.R.A.M. said, but its version with Yachty’s verses hit No. 5.
Jawsh 685 x Jason Derulo x BTS, “Savage Love (Laxed — Siren Beat)”
The New Zealand producer born Joshua Stylah was 17 when he released a minimalist piano-horns-drums beat made with FL Studio software in 2020. “Laxed (Siren Beat)” went viral on TikTok as the Culture Dance, and celebrities from Jimmy Fallon to BTS posted some of the 55 million-plus videos set to the song. Derulo DMed Jawsh 685 — named for the area code of Samoa, his father’s homeland — and despite a small issue of whether Derulo gave proper credit, this version of “Savage Love” – also thanks to BTS joining the track – peaked at No. 1 for one week. While Derulo and BTS have notched many a Hot 100 hit, this remains Jawsh 685’s sole Hot 100 entry thus far.
Shop Boyz, “Party Like a Rockstar”
Kings of the Great Ringtone Era of 2007, Atlanta rock-and-rap trio Shop Boyz broke their chanting, electro-violin-riffing “Party Like a Rockstar” in a “hood club,” as Shop Boy Richard “Fat” Stephens told Vice in 2015. The track hit heavy MTV, BET and radio rotation and earned a Grammy Award nomination — and hit No. 2 on the Hot 100. Since then, the group has put out a steady stream of singles, from Black Lives Matter tribute “On and On” to the reflective, heavily Auto-Tuned “Caught in the Moment.”
Jimmy Eat World, “The Middle”
Jimmy Eat World’s commercial high-water mark by the early 2000s had been “Lucky Denver Mint,” which appeared on the soundtrack to the Drew Barrymore film Never Been Kissed. Capitol Records dropped the pioneering emo band, but DreamWorks picked it up for 2001’s Blood American and put out fizzy rocker “The Middle” as its second single. It was ascending the rock charts when the band appeared (fully clothed) in a video about an underwear-only teen party, and it blew up, peaking at No. 5 in 2002. “It was awkward for people at first, but after the first hour it became this normalized thing,” frontman Jim Adkins told Billboard. Jimmy Eat World has placed seven top 10s on the Alternative Airplay chart and earned two Billboard 200 top 10 albums.
Arizona Zervas, “Roxanne”
Inspired by a woman not named Roxanne, “Roxanne” is a Juice WRLD-style rap about what Maryland-raised Arizona Zervas said was a “disaster girl you want to f–k with, but it’s hard to,” he told Flaunt. “Watching the numbers go up is so insane,” he said of the 2019 No. 4 hit. “A lot of people calling you, your favorite artists start asking you to get in the studio with them. I was focusing on my breathing.” Although Flaunt declared, “don’t get twisted, this is no one-hit wonder,” Zervas has yet to chart post-“Roxanne,” although recent tracks have scored Spotify plays in the millions.
Passenger, “Let Her Go”
For five years, British singer-songwriter Mike Rosenberg busked on the streets and in the pubs of Europe and Australia — until his reflective, soft-spoken folk song “Let Her Go” blew up on radio in 2012, eventually hitting No. 5 in February 2014. “Obviously it’s a good thing: This whole new world opened up to me,” he told Elle.“But at the same time, it was really disconcerting. Your life just changes overnight and everybody else around you starts to change as well.” His crowds expanded from 150-200 people to 5,000-6,000; Passenger opened for Ed Sheeran; “Let Her Go” landed in a Budweiser commercial during the 2014 Super Bowl; and he’s notched three top 10s on the Adult Alternative Airplay chart.
Steve Lacy, “Bad Habit”
This soothing, yearning, mid-tempo 2021 smash initially sounded much different. “At first it was, ‘I wish I knew you! I wish I knew you wanted me,’” Lacy told Billboard.But he received advice from rapper Tyler, the Creator, with whom Lacy had worked as a producer for The Internet’s Ego Death album. Drop the “you,” Tyler said. The cut worked. The three-week No. 1 smash brought Lacy to Coachella and a headlining theater tour. He insisted he would remain “swagged out” — and has landed five top 10s on Hot R&B Songs — he has yet to re-chart on the Hot 100.
Rema & Selena Gomez, “Calm Down”
After releasing the original “lo-lo-lo-lo-lo-wo-wo-wo-wo”-ing version of “Calm Down” in 2023, Nigeria’s Rema noticed it breaking on the Billboard U.S. Afrobeats Songs chart. He took a swing and recruited Gomez for the female vocal and, shockingly, she agreed. “I had my fingers crossed,” he told Billboard.The No. 3-peaking “Calm Down” was obviously not veteran pop superstar Gomez’s only hit, but Rema has yet to make it to the Hot 100 again — although he has landed six top 10s on U.S. Afrobeats Songs, through the June 7, 2025, chart.
OMI, “Cheerleader”
Omar Samuel Pasley woke up one day in Clarendon, Jamaica, humming a melody. “It was like a little Jamaican nursery rhyme, like ‘one, two, buckle my shoe’,” he said in 2015, after the laid-back reggae song about finding the perfect woman at the perfect time took off and hit No. 1. It ruled for six weeks and wrapped atop 2015’s Songs of the Summer chart. OMI followed the single with a full-length album, Me 4 U, which hit No. 51 on the Billboard 200. Its remixed “Cheerleader” is at nearly 2 billion Spotify plays. Then he bought new rims for his brown Infinity, making clear to Billboard the purchase was not for product placement: “That’s actually what I drive.”
Silentó, “Watch Me”
Beginning as a 15-second viral video, “Watch Me” turned four existing dance crazes, the Whip, the Nae Nae, the Stanky Legg and the Superman, into wedding-and-bar-mitzvah fixtures as permanent as the “Macarena.” Silentó, a 17-year-old Atlanta rapper who called his style “rated E for everyone,” uploaded the song to SoundCloud, then watched “Watch Me” blow up online and on the radio, peaking at No. 3 in 2015. (Since then, things have gone downhill for the rapper; in June 2025, Silento was sentenced to 30 years in prison after pleading guilty to shooting his cousin dead in 2021.)
MAGIC!, “Rude”
The lighthearted, reggae-inflected song is about a man who asks his girlfriend’s father for marriage permission: No, Dad says, setting up a chorus (“why you gotta be so rude?”) that burrowed into millions of brains, en route to a No. 1 smash for six weeks beginning in July 2014. Guitarist Mark Pellizzer told Billboard: “We were just like, ‘Let’s start a band that sounds kind of like the Police and the Wailers.’” The song took off after singer Nasri Atweh met Pitbull’s then-manager, Charles Chavez, who pitched it as a summer single on Australia and New Zealand radio, eventually landing an RCA deal.
Daniel Powter, “Bad Day”
Buttressing bleak lyrics with upbeat piano chords, Canadian singer Powter created the uber-relatable “Bad Day” in 2002 and shopped it to labels for a year until he scored a deal with Warner Bros. Records. “At the time, I couldn’t imagine that it would be a hit,” he told Songwriter Universe. “I was just trying to make music.” “Bad Day” aired on American Idol and Coca-Cola commercials, hitting No. 1 for five weeks in April-May 2006. The album it landed on, Daniel Powter, also made it to the Billboard 200 top 10.
Glass Animals, “Heat Waves”
One of the most smolderingly downbeat one-hit wonders ever, this tribute to a fallen friend arrived in August 2020, a bleak and confusing pandemic-lockdown period that Glass Animals frontman Dave Bayley described as a “head f—k.” “You look so broken when you cry,” he sings. Written in a pique of ’90s mood-board nostalgia, the song rose over 59 weeks on the Hot 100 to No. 1 in March 2022 – completing a record climb to the top spot, where it reigned for five weeks, and made Bayley feel “like walking outside naked,” he told Billboard in 2024. Glass Animals, who also landed 2020’s Dreamland in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 and earned five top 10s on the Alternative Airplay chart, continue to record albums and headline worldwide arenas and amphitheaters.
The Gemini North Telescope, one half of the International Gemini Observatory, studies the skies above Maunakea, a mountain in Hawai’i. Its twin, the Gemini South Telescope, is based in the Chilean Andes at Cerro Pachón.
What is it?
According to NOIRLab, both Gemini Telescopes have four imagers and spectrographs that view in both optical and infrared wavelengths simultaneously, which are mounted on the back of the telescopes. These instruments work in sync with the telescopes’ guidance systems in order to be able to look deep into the universe.
The Gemini North Telescope is one of several near the summit of Maunakea and it and its twin are two of only a select few observatories that can be operated fully remotely.
Where is it?
At 13,825 feet (4214 meters) of a long-dormant volcano, the Gemini North Telescope is above clouds and light pollution that could interfere with its analysis.

Why is it amazing?
While the Gemini North Telescope may be at a high enough elevation to avoid light pollution, it has another issue that might interfere with its readings: satellite streaks. Because there are more satellites in low-Earth orbit than before, it can be challenging for astronomers to filter out the activity, from these objects. In this image, the long exposure shows three satellites streaking across the sky to form a triangle shape.
Researchers are working to find ways to track these satellites in hopes of making it easier for astronomers to peer into our universe and study the many celestial objects that are there.

Pakistan Army chief Field Marshal Asim Munir has backed terror groups operating in Jammu and Kashmir, saying that what India describes as terrorism is a “legitimate struggle” and that Pakistan will continue providing political, diplomatic, and moral support to the Kashmiri people.
Munir made the remarks while addressing a passing out parade at the Pakistan Naval Academy on Saturday, when he also said that India has “twice undertaken acts of unprovoked aggression against Pakistan” and the onus of any future escalation “will squarely lie with the aggressor”.
The speech was reminiscent of Munir’s remarks at an Overseas Pakistanis Convention in Islamabad on April 16, less than a week before the Pahalgam terror attack, when he described Kashmir as the “jugular vein” of Pakistan and said Islamabad will continue backing the struggle against “Indian occupation”.
There was no immediate response from Indian officials to Munir’s latest remarks. Munir’s previous remarks on Kashmir have been rubbished by the external affairs ministry.
“What India tends to term as terrorism is in fact the legitimate struggle as per the international conventions. Those who endeavoured to subdue the will of Kashmiri people and sought conflict elimination instead of resolution have made it more relevant and pronounced through their own actions,” Munir said while addressing the gathering in Karachi that included top military officers, civilian officials, and diplomats.
“We stand firm with the Kashmiri people for their right of self-determination for the resolution of the internationally recognised long-standing dispute in accordance with the UN Security Council resolutions and the aspirations of the people of Kashmir,” he added.
Munir contended that “regional peace will forever remain elusive” and there would be “perpetual danger of conflict in South Asia” without the “just and peaceful resolution” of the Kashmir issue.
Paying tribute to those who are struggling for “the right of self-determination”, Munir said: “Pakistan will always continue to provide political, diplomatic and moral support to the valiant people of…Jammu and Kashmir.”
India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 to target terrorist infrastructure in territories controlled by Pakistan in retaliation for the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 civilians. This triggered four days of intense clashes, with both sides using drones, missiles, and long-range weapons, before they reached an understanding to halt military actions on May 10.
Munir claimed India’s leadership had “twice undertaken acts of unprovoked aggression against Pakistan” in recent years, under the “pretext of counter terrorism”. He was referring to the clashes in May and the cross-border air strike carried out by India in response to the Pulwama suicide bombing in 2019 that killed 40 Indian troopers. At that time, both sides had briefly engaged in aerial battles and skirmishes.
“Pakistan, despite grave provocations, acted with restraint and maturity and demonstrated its commitment to regional peace and stability, which has led to Pakistan’s role as net regional stabiliser,” Munir said. “However, the assumption that Pakistan would have any constraints in the face of any future violation of its sovereignty reflects a dangerous misreading of strategic fundamentals…any enemy acting on perceived vulnerability of Pakistan under the illusion of strategic impunity or miscalculation would get an assured, swift and a very befitting response.”
Andrea Stella was full of his praise for his drivers during a ‘tense’ Austrian Grand Prix, as McLaren title protagonists Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri battled for the lead with the Briton eventually sealing victory.
It was a two-horse race for the win at the Red Bull Ring once Piastri made his way past Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc at the start of the Grand Prix, the Australian then harrying and pushing polesitter Norris on in the first stint.
In a thrilling exchange in the early stages Norris was unable to break the DRS, and was vulnerable for lap after lap to his team mate, something that will have heightened the heart rates on the McLaren pit wall given the duo’s collision in the Canadian Grand Prix.
As the fight for the lead went on Piastri did manage to briefly overtake for first place, only to see Norris cut straight back past. Then came arguably the championship leader’s best opportunity as he out-braked Norris into Turn 4 – only to lock up, and narrowly avoid contact.
McLaren pitted Norris soon after, and then their strategies diverged – Piastri staying out before emerging from his own pit stop six seconds adrift of his team mate later on, with McLaren then able to enjoy a slightly less fraught race.
Piastri never got back into DRS for the remainder of the Grand Prix, with Norris going on to win his third race of the season.
“It was intense racing, but that is what we are here for, to race,” Stella explained.
“It was an open race today and here in Austria it is a special track as, when you get the DRS, you stay hooked to the car ahead and this is what happened in the first stint, as the pace between Lando and Oscar was very similar.
“So, this is what happened, they stayed together throughout the stint and Oscar had a couple of chances. We are very happy and proud of how they handled the situation.
“We needed to give Oscar a bit of advice in terms of the manoeuvre in Turn 4, which he once again acknowledged. So, I’m proud of him for how he said straight after the chequered flag that he was sorry for that manoeuvre, he went a little too far. It’s not easy, it is Formula 1, he is racing, he is racing hard but it is a good day.”
Piastri remains in the lead of the Championship, but Norris has closed the gap down to just 15 points following his Spielberg triumph. With Max Verstappen failing to finish, the McLaren pair have a commanding lead over the rest in what is shaping up to be a straight intra-team fight for the title.
“They are obviously stressful moments, but we trust, we rely on Oscar and Lando and also once we are on the pit wall you just try and stay as chilled as possible and analyse rationally what is going on,” Stella added, reflecting on the pairs on-track battles.
“But for us, it was clear that the guys needed to have the opportunity to give the race, both, as long as they do it in the way they have done it today. It is a great spectacle for Formula 1.
“We are happy that we entertain our fans, our spectators and we look forward to more races like this even if, yes, it gave us some nervousness on the pit wall. But that is what we are here for.”
Following McLaren’s 1-2 result in Austria, the Woking-based squad have an even more commanding lead in the Teams’ Championship, 207 points ahead of Ferrari.
Fifty people were taken to hospital after the crash on Water Street
The final person receiving hospital treatment after the Liverpool FC title parade crash has been discharged.
More than 100 people were injured when a car hit the crowd near the end of the Reds’ Premier League victory parade in Liverpool city centre on 26 May.
Fifty people were taken to hospital after the incident on Water Street.
The force has now confirmed all those who had received NHS care had been permitted to return home.
Chief Constable Serena Kennedy confirmed the majority of people injured had already been discharged when she addressed a scrutiny panel earlier this month, the Local Democracy Reporting Service said.
Chief Constable Kennedy said officers who responded to the scene on 26 May had done an “outstanding job” and praised all those on duty, particularly those who were injured in the course of protecting the public.
Emily Spurrell, Merseyside police and crime commissioner, praised the work of officers and described the incident on Water Street as “really upsetting” after a successful weekend of events.
Trial
Paul Doyle, of Burghill Road in West Derby, has since been charged with a series of alleged offences in relation to the incident.
The 53-year-old has been accused of two counts of wounding with intent, two charges of inflicting grievous bodily harm, two of attempting to inflict grievous bodily harm and dangerous driving.
A trial date has been scheduled for 24 November, provisionally lasting for three to four weeks. A plea hearing is scheduled for 14 August.
