A convicted murderer faces a life sentence after a much loved dad was shot dead when gang warfare exploded on the streets. Wade Cox, 32, blasted Luke Graham at point blank range in broad daylight, as children played nearby.
Mr Graham, 31, known as 'Tank', was targeted after his drug dealing stepped on the toes of an organised crime gang operating in Tameside. Cox was ordered to serve at least 36 years in jail after being convicted of murder in 2019.
Now a second man has been convicted of Mr Graham's murder after he was dragged back to the UK to face justice. Callum Halpin, 28, was found guilty under joint enterprise laws after he shut the door of the van Mr Graham was sat in when he was shot, to prevent him from escaping.
