Three violent robbers have been jailed after targeting the brothers of Premier League footballers Trent Alexander-Arnold and Marcus Rashford.
Talleko Lemonious, 27, Tariq Dervan, 22, and Romario Harmer, 21, denied involvement but were convicted of the robbery of five men, including Tyler Alexander-Arnold and Dane Rashford at Little Rock café in Moss Side. Jurors at Manchester's Minshull Street Crown Court also found all three guilty of possessing a double barrelled sawn-off shotgun, machete and baseball bat during the terrifying attack.
Mr Alexander-Arnold, brother of Liverpool star Trent, and Mr Rashford were attacked and robbed of a £70,000 car, wallets and watches while eating breakfast with friends on the morning of January 12 2019. The men had met with friends at around 10am ahead of driving to Brighton to watch Liverpool play a Premier League game.
