A jury must decide if a UK man who denies murdering Irish boxing champion Kevin Sheehy was provoked before he repeatedly ran over the talented athlete in his jeep.

Logan Jackson (31), of Longford Road, Coventry, England has pleaded not guilty to murder but guilty to Mr Sheehy's (20) manslaughter at Hyde Road in Limerick city on July 1, 2019.
