FOUR protesters have denied causing criminal damage to the statue of slave owner Edward Colston and will face trial in December.
The court case will take place 18 months after the bronze figure of the slave merchant was toppled during a Black Lives Matter protest in June 2020.
Jake Skuse, 36, Rhian Graham, 29, Milo Ponsford, 25, and Sage Willoughby, 21, dubbed the Colston Four, appeared at Bristol Crown Court this morning.
