Tyrone Dorsett from Telford was shot dead in Birmingham

Milton Williams is one of two men accused of the murder of Tyrone Dorsett who was shot dead in a small car park next to Birmingham City FC in Bordesley Green, just after midnight on April 15, 2018.

The jury on the second day of the trial at Birmingham Crown Court viewed intermittent CCTV footage taken from the scene which showed Williams, and co-defendant Damaine Sculley leaving the scene shortly after the alleged killing.

Mobile phone records tracked them going back to the Hamstead and Handsworth area around 52 minutes after midnight, when the incident was said to have occurred.

Simon Denison, KC, continuing with the prosecution's opening statement said: "The next day, we have evidence that Williams went to a travel agents in Perry Barr where he booked a return flight to Jamaica – the person who booked him the flight said he seemed agitated and anxious when booking it, asking a number of questions."
