A teenage boy was "clearly threatening violence" when he waved a knife outside a house in Cork city where 20-year-old college student Cameron Blair was murdered, his defence counsel has told the Central Criminal Court.

The judge adjourned the sentencing of Scott O'Connor after hearing that the accused now accepts that he had "minimised" his behaviour on the night and there was no longer a conflict on the facts in the case.
