Man found guilty of murder in Ross-on-Wye
A man has been found guilty of the murder of his friend in Ross-on-Wye last autumn.
Kestutis Lekunas, 36, was found guilty today (28 March) at Worcester Crown Court.
West Mercia Police say in October last year, Lekunas stabbed his friend on Bluebell Close following a disagreement.
The pair had been at a party at Lekunas' house that evening and the pair are said to have stepped outside after becoming involved in an argument.
Following the argument, officers say an altercation took place where Neirjus Liukpetris, 40, assaulted Lekunas. It's said Lekunas then went back into the house and came back with a knife - where he delivered a fatal stab wound to Nerijus's neck.
The 36-year-old will be sentenced at Worcester Crown Court on 27 April.
