This is the moment a dog walker is allegedly chased down by a gang, who dubbed themselves the 'Three Musketeers', minutes before he was stabbed to death in broad daylight.

CCTV footage shows Kieran Shepherd, 30, with his dog before being ambushed by Joseph Dawe, Zack O'Keeffe and Harrison Carpenter.

Mr Shepherd was brutally stabbed and left for dead on Meadgate Avenue, in Great Baddow in October 15, 2024, Chelmsford Crown Court heard.

During the opening of the trial, the jury was shown the distressing video of the chase beginning at 12.24pm that day.

Tracy Ayling KC, prosecuting, told the jury that Mr Shepherd had been stabbed twice - puncturing his lung and heart.
