Teenager fatally stabbed pensioner after randomly walking into house, court told

Gerald Wickes was described as a ‘loving father, grandfather and great-grandfather’ by family following his death

Prosecutors told a jury on Monday that then-17-year-old Daniel Rounce had walked into the unlocked house uninvited, stabbed Mr Wickes in front of his ex-wife and son and ran off within 90 seconds. “He walked into the room, he ignored their questions about what he was doing and he said very little, except words to the effect that he would decide what was going to happen next.

A man whom the prosecution says was Rounce seen on CCTV loitering in the Eyres Monsell area on the day of the attack wearing dark clothing and a motorcycle helmet and was seen passing Mr Wickes’ ex-wife as she walked home at around 4pm.
