Connor Chapman was banned from his home estate

The man accused of shooting Elle Edwards outside a busy pub had been hit with a court injunction aimed at "preventing gang violence", a jury heard.

Connor Chapman, 23, is on trial at Liverpool Crown Court charged with the 26-year-old beautician's murder and the attempted murder of "intended targets" Kieran Salkeld and Jake Duffy outside the Lighthouse pub in Wallasey on December 24 last year.

Three other "innocent bystanders", Harry Loughran, Liam Carr and Nicholas Speed, were also wounded when the gunman sprayed 12 bullets from a military style Skorpion sub-machine gun towards the front entrance of the busy venue. Elle was struck twice in the head and suffered "unsurvivable" injuries.
