North Yorkshire Police has released CCTV footage which appears to show Greg Marshall, 35, and Jason Daniel Rhodes, 33, being chased by Ian James Franklin brandishing a knife near Roche Avenue, off Huntington Road.
Franklin, 34, of Roche Avenue, was today (Monday, April 14) jailed for life with a minimum term of 21 years for Mr Marshall’s murder at Leeds Crown Court.
Mr Marshall’s widow, Michelle Marshall, told the court her family had been “ripped apart” by the murder.
A jury, after an eight-week trial, convicted Franklin of murdering Mr Marshall, wounding Rhodes, and carrying a knife in public.
He had denied all charges and claimed he had been acting in self defence.

After the hearing, Detective Sergeant Rebecca Prentice from North Yorkshire Police’s Major Investigation Team, said: “Justice has been served with today’s verdict and our thoughts remain with Mr Marshall’s family and loved ones.
“This was a brutal and senseless crime, and I hope the outcome provides some measure of closure for those affected.”
