Schoolboy murdered in 'horror film scene'

A teenage schoolboy died in a blood-soaked scene which resembled a horror film, the trial of his alleged killer heard yesterday.

Popular student Jimmy Mizen died after he was struck by a glass dish which smashed and cut blood vessels in his neck sending blood squirting all over a baker's shop.

The row which led to the 16-year-old's death was no more than a trivial incident that resulted in "three minutes of absolute madness", prosecutor Crispin Aylett told the Old Bailey.

Mr Aylett said his accused killer Jake Fahri, 19, had become enraged when Mr Mizen would not move out of his way.

"It seems extraordinary that a young man might go into a baker's on a Saturday morning and end up dead but that is what happened," he said.

Mr Fahri was seen running away "smirking", he added.
