A man spent the afternoon drinking with his neighbour before stabbing him to death, a court has heard.
Jeffrey Kelly today went on trial accused of murder after knifing 49-year-old Derek Burns in the heart, following an alleged disagreement over building work. Liverpool Crown Court heard this afternoon, Wednesday, that police and paramedics were called to the scene on Newsham Drive in Tuebrook shortly before 7pm on May 15 this year.
Andrew O'Byrne KC, prosecuting, described how an air ambulance with a doctor on board also attended and found that Mr Burns had been stabbed "more than once".
