Ms Heer added: "He said [Brown] had just butchered Joanne Pearson.
"He said it was like a watching a horror film."
The prosecutor said Brown then went next door and attacked Bradley Grant and Teohna Latter.

Prosecutor Deanne Heer KC tells the court Jazwell Brown's son Jake was also attacked by his father after the teenager attempted to save Brown's partner Joanne Pearson.
He suffered a stab wound himself before grabbing his phone and shutting himself in a bathroom to call 999.
Joanne was heard on a 999 call screaming: "Jaz, no, you're killing me, tell my children I love them."

Jazwell Brown looks solemn as he listens to the proceedings from the dock.
He is not looking up while the prosecution outline what happened on Christmas Day.
Prosecutor Deanna Heer KC tells the court Brown stabbed his partner Joanne Pearson before beating her with a baseball bat.
"He then took a knife and baseball bat to his neighbour's flat," she adds.
After Brown pleaded guilty in April, Det Ch Insp Stuart Brangwin of Thames Valley Police described the attack as "brutal".
"Jazwell Brown is a dangerous man and I am glad that he has pleaded guilty, accepting responsibility for his actions that day, but the deaths of Joanne and Teohna cannot be undone," he said.
"This was a brutal attack on his own partner and neighbour, in their respective homes, where they should have been able to feel safe and secure."
Celia Mardon, a Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) lawyer, added the attack had caused "irreversible damage - robbing two women of their lives and seriously injuring two others".
"While we may never know why Brown committed such mindless violence, we must remember the two lives that were needlessly lost," she added.

In April, Jazwell Brown appeared at Luton Crown Court where he pleaded guilty to murdering Joanne Pearson and Teohna Grant on Christmas Day.
He also admitted attempting to murder Bradley Latter and his teenage son Jake in the same attack, as well as unlawfully possessing a knife in a public place and causing unnecessary suffering to a Staffordshire bull terrier.
Charles Miskin KC, representing Brown at the plea hearing, said the 49-year-old had shown remorse for his actions and was "profoundly sorry".
The judge remanded Brown in custody pending sentencing today.
Mr Justice Kerr also ruled that the child victim of attempted murder could not be identified in media reports of the case.

However, he had been spotted by eyewitnesses and captured on CCTV.
"Responding to emergency calls, officers with Thames Valley Police quickly apprehended Brown and brought him into custody where he made several incriminating statements," the CPS said.
"These included 'I lost my cool tonight' and describing the incident as 'not self-defence, plain murder, it's plain murder, not self-defence'."
