Man charged with murder of Danny Fox

A man has appeared in court charged with the murder of St Helens doorman Danny Fox.

Leighton Holt appeared at Liverpool Magistrates Court in connection with the killing of the 29-year-old, who suffered knife wounds in the town last Friday.

Holt, 20, of Stockbridge Village denied the charge but did not enter a plea at the hearing, which is set to be followed by a pre-trial case on November 28.

A trial into Fox’s death will take place on February 27 next year.
