A jury was told today how murder accused Allan Kimber caused problems for his ex-wife and her new husband.

Kimber, 41, denies shooting Gary Morgan, 37, in the neck near the victim's home at Danesbrook Farm, Stanton St John, on October 17 last year.

Mr Morgan had married Kimber's former wife Helen and the trio all used to work for the Stagecoach bus company, the jury at Oxford Crown Court heard.

Stagecoach union rep John Chaplin told the court said when Mr and Mrs Morgan started a relationship, there were "quite a few problems" involving the three of them, including cases of bus-blocking.

Mr Chaplin explained how Kimber was in charge of arranging buses in the yard and would purposely block Mr and Mrs Morgan's buses in.

He said: "They would not be able to get out at the correct times, which would make them late for their duties."

The case continues.
