A businessman was shot dead by his brother following a row over a pair of trainers, a murder trial heard. Zikel Bobmanuel died after his brother Rumaal Ingram opened fire in the street.
The bullet hit the floor and ricocheted, hitting 32-year-old Mr Bobmanuel in the neck. Jurors at Manchester Crown Court heard that Mr Bobmanuel, who ran his own clothing firm, had been involved in an argument with another man named Emmanuel Onasanya over a pair of trainers.
Onasanya, 32, claimed he was owed money in relation to the trainers, the court heard. Prosecutors claim that he 'enlisted the support and assistance' of Ingram, and that the pair went to meet Mr Bobmanuel in Openshaw on March 25.

Ingram, 36, has admitted firing the gun which killed Mr Bobmanuel. Gordon Cole KC, prosecuting, told jurors that Ingram had previously pleaded guilty to manslaughter.
He and Onasanya both deny murder. Mr Cole said: “It is Mr Ingram who fired that gun, and having fired the gun, the bullet went into the floor first, but went into the neck of Mr Bobmanuel and killed him.
