Man to stand trial after death of much-loved dad

Scott Lisney died after reportedly being attacked outside shops in Bury St Edmunds

A man will stand trial next year after a "much-loved" father died following an alleged attack outside a row of shops.

Andrew Allen, 54, of Severn Road, Bury St Edmunds, was charged with manslaughter at Peterborough Crown Court after the death of Scott Lisney.

The 56-year-old was reportedly assaulted near the St Olaves shops, in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk at 20:05 BST on 26 July.

At Cambridge Crown Court today, Mr Allen was released on bail but told his trial would commence in October 2026.
