A man appeared in court today accused of stabbing a man to death in Huyton.
James Preston had been charged with the murder of 25-year-old Joseph Holland at an address in Huyton House Road, Huyton, on Thursday, June 8. Mr Holland was found dead in the house after Merseyside Police were called to reports of concerns for the safety of a man, and it was later confirmed he suffered a stab wound to the chest.
The force said a 21-year-old man had been arrested on suspicion of murder in Kent on Saturday, June 10. Three men from Huyton, aged 28, 25 and 36, who were arrested on suspicion of murder on Thursday have since been released on police bail pending further inquiries.
