Jockey murder accused 'spotted after alarm raised'

A man accused of starting a fire which killed two young jockeys, one of them Irish, was walking around barefoot and obviously drunk after the alarm was raised, a witness told a jury today.

Peter Brown (aged 37) is accused of setting light to a block of flats in Norton, North Yorkshire, and murdering Jamie Kyne (aged 18) from Kiltrogue, Co Galway, and Jan Wilson (aged 19) from Forfar, Scotland.
