Three more teenagers who murdered an 18-year-old in a group attack can be named after a court order expired.

Jack Woodley suffered a fatal stab wound while being punched, kicked and stamped upon by a group of 10 teenagers in Houghton-le-Spring, Tyne and Wear, in October 2021.

Tyler Brewis, Lewis Rose and Rhys Wear, who were under the age of 18 at the time of sentencing in 2022, were among those found guilty of the murder and sentenced to life with minimum terms of between eight and 13 years.

Prosecutors said the youths had been intent on attacking someone at the Houghton Feast funfair and that Mr Woodley came to their attention for a "trivial reason".
