Teenagers jailed for Buckfast killing
Two teenagers were yesterday jailed for killing a man in an alcohol-fuelled street attack with a Buckfast wine bottle.Robbie McKay and Andrew Irvine were each sentenced to six years and nine months.
They had challenged Jack Wilde, the 24-year-old victim, to a "square go" after he came across a group of youths at a shopping centre in Glenrothes, Fife, in August last year.
Mr Wilde was repeatedly kicked and hit after he had already been knocked to the ground. He was taken to hospital but was unconscious and later pronounced dead.
