Retrial ordered for Tunbridge Wells recycling depot murder accused

Floral tributes to James Wallington were left at the waste recycling depot

A jury has failed to reach a verdict in the trial of a man charged with the murder of a man stabbed to death at a Kent waste recycling depot.

James Wallington, 44, was stabbed in North Farm Lane, Tunbridge Wells, just after 06:00 GMT on 9 March.

David Squelch, 48, of Maidstone Road, Paddock Wood, had pleading not guilty to murder, but admitted manslaughter at an earlier hearing.

A date for retrial at Canterbury Crown Court has been set for 14 March 2016.
