A TEENAGER sexually assaulted a young girl in his bedroom, a court heard.
Michael Wressell, 18, is also alleged to have indecently assaulted another girl on a separate occasion.
Mr Wressell, who was then 14, denies two charges of indecent assault against the girls in 1996, when they were eight.
Newcastle Crown Court was told that Mr Wressell, of Front Street, Croxdale, Durham, put on a loud video before he assaulted the first girl, but was disturbed by a telephone call.
Prosecutor Julie Clemitson told the court that he had pushed the second girl's hand down his trousers on another occasion.
The trial continues
