Clifford Brown, 29, who used to run the Clifton Arms pub in Broxburn, West Lothian, said somebody had run into his pub to tell him there had been a stabbing outside.

Mr Brown told the High Court in Livingston that he ran outside to find the man, Barry Fleming, 28, lying in a pool of blood.

He was giving evidence on the first day of the trial of Christopher Bouhadi, 25, who denies murdering Mr Fleming, of Broxburn, West Lothian at Station Road, Broxburn, on 29 May last year.

The case continues.
