'Wholly innocent' Elle Edwards shot dead amid 'feud' between rival groups, court told
A 'wholly innocent' woman was shot dead outside a pub on Christmas Eve in the culmination of an 'ongoing feud' between rival groups from two estates, a court has heard.
Nigel Power KC, prosecuting said the intended targets of the shooting were Jake Duffy and Kieran Salkeld. He added: “Although they were injured, Elle Edwards, a wholly innocent bystander, was killed by two bullets which entered the back of the left side of her head." Mr Power told the jury the shooting followed a 'history of trouble' between rival groups from the Woodchurch and Ford estates, on either side of the M53 in Wirral. He outlined a series of events, including injunctions preventing Chapman associating with named individuals, including Mr Duffy and Mr Salkeld, as well as a burglary in November and two shootings in December.
