Three men have been found guilty of the murder of a 51-year-old man in Kington.

On Friday 2 December 2021, Carl Dyche, who was from Kington, was assaulted in his own garden in a completely unprovoked attack.

On the night of the attack, three men climbed over the back gate to Carl's garden where they set about attacking him with sustained and repeated blows. The attack was so harrowing Carl’s wife and son attempted to intervene.

Unfortunately, Carl had been so badly beaten, on Monday 5 December, he died in hospital as a result of his injuries.

Today, three men - Ajay Price 21, of High Street in Kington, Luke Bellis, 30, also of High Street and John Lock, 35 of Greenfields, Kington - were found guilty of murder by a jury at Worcester Crown Court.
