A young father was fatally stabbed as he refereed at a pre-arranged fight aimed to resolve a feud which had started on Facebook, a court was told.
Clearly, the first rule about
this Fight Club should have been: No knives!
Jurors were told 25-year-old Mr Croxton had arranged for two separate groups to meet in an isolated wooded area at 4.30pm on January 23, 2012, and for a fight to occur.
The court heard that at the location, off The Diplocks estate in Hailsham, Kai Smith started fighting Tom Venton, who had previously dated his girlfriend.
Blimey! It's more confusing than
the film...
a feud which had started on Facebook...
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry but you're going to need to use the Large Hadron Collider to find my sympathy.
I'm only sorry more of these 'adults going on twelve' didn't end up in the morgue.
At least no people were hurt.
ReplyDeleteTime to ban facebook.

ReplyDeleteThey are indeed Darwin Award candidates...or would be, if they hadn't already reproduced.
"At least no people were hurt."
Heh!
"Time to ban facebook.
