A teenager killed a dad for his Rolex watch in a horrific church attack. Jordan Short, 19, laughed and grinned after Steven McMyler, 34, was kicked to death for his accessory, reports Manchester Evening News.
Manchester Crown Court heard that the incident occurred back in 2020, when the father-of-two had gone to a jewellers in Wigan to get an updated valuation for his Rolex Submariner watch. Prosecutor Mark Ford KC says the piece had previously been valued at £11.500.

The prosecutor read out a statement on behalf of the victims mother Carole McMyler, who says the tragedy had 'broken' her family. She said: "Our hearts have been ripped from our chest and shattered into tiny pieces.
