A Stourbridge man is facing life in jail for the killing of a 59 year-old neighbour on New Year’s Day.

Daniel Jones has admitted to the murder of Paul Tomkins whose body was found with multiple injuries at his Forge Road flat in Wollaston.

Jones, who boasted to police he was a trained cage fighter after his arrest, had been drinking heavily and taking drugs with Mr Tomkins before he launched his attack. 

Mr Tomkins, who had mental health issues, lived alone in his ground floor flat.
