The trial of a man accused of murdering an early morning gym-goer and the attempted murder of coach Pete Taylor at Bray Boxing Club has collapsed at the Central Criminal Court due to a juror becoming seriously ill.
The trial has been sitting for 10 weeks and heard weeks of legal argument in the jury's absence since opening at the Criminal Courts of Justice.
