A man accused of murder has described the neighbour who he stabbed to death as "obnoxious".
Jeffrey Kelly today recounted the moment he knifed Derek Burns in the heart from the witness box at Liverpool Crown Court. His trial previously heard that the pair had spent the afternoon of May 15 this year drinking in the block of flats where they both lived on Newsham Drive in Tuebrook.
They then had a disagreement over building work, after which Mr Burns followed Kelly back to his apartment. While he managed to shut the front door behind him, his flatmate - who had armed himself with a kitchen knife - began kicking at it.
