Thomas Cashman today denied "getting rid" of a pair of tracksuit bottoms he is accused of wearing to shoot Olivia Pratt-Korbel.
The 34-year-old was cross-examined at Manchester Crown Court on Wednesday, where he is standing trial for the nine-year-old's murder on the evening of August 22 last year. Olivia died after a bullet passed through the front door of her family home on Kingsheath Avenue, Dovecot, hit the hand of her mum, Cheryl Korbel, and struck her in the chest.
The gunman had been chasing 36-year-old Joseph Nee, who barged into the Korbel house while fleeing for his life. Cashman denies being the gunman or any involvement in the shootings.
