Eyewitnesses heard 'worst screams ever' as dying Olivia Pratt-Korbel carried out of house

A jury has heard statements from eyewitnesses describing the moment shooting started in the street before Olivia Pratt-Korbel was killed.

Manchester Crown Court heard from Paul Abraham, who was with the "intended target" Joseph Nee when he was targeted by a gunman on Kingsheath Avenue, Dovecot, ar 10pm on August 22 last year. The jury has heard the bullet that killed Olivia travelled through the door of the Korbel family home after Nee barged his way inside to escape.

The jury is hearing evidence against Thomas Cashman, 34, of Grenadier Dive in West Derby, who denies being the gunman and any involvement in the shooting of Olivia, Nee, or Olivia's mum Cheryl Korbel who was also wounded by the same bullet that killed her daughter.
