Reading security guard killed homeless man with ‘knockout blow’, jury hears

Sabeur Trabelsi, 44, accused of punching Jason Page in 2020 after chasing him down over stolen meat

A Marks & Spencer security guard killed a homeless man with a “knockout blow” to his head after chasing him down over a suspicion he had stolen some meat, a jury has heard.

Sabeur Trabelsi is accused of lying to police about the incident, claiming Jason Page fell over because he was drunk. Prosecutors told jurors at Reading crown court that Page, who died the next day from a bleed on the brain, fell after Trabelsi punched him.
