Liverpool Crown Court heard he was the victim of a "revenge" attack over text messages he sent to ex-girlfriend, Melissa Stubbs.

Melissa, her brother Aaron Stubbs, friend Stephen Strutt, and Peter Walker, were charged with murder.

Following a six-week trial, a jury today found the four guilty.

A fifth defendant Sarah Clarke, 30, was found guilty of assisting an offender, after hiding Strutt, her partner, at a Blackpool hotel as police searched for him after the murder.

On the night of the attack, Merseyside Police say that at around 10.15pm, three men and a woman arrived in a grey Kia Sportage, before assaulting Warren with weapons in the quiet residential street.
