Two boys murdered in case of mistaken identity, Bristol court told

Four youths and a man in his 40s carried out ‘revenge’ attack on Mason Rist, 15, and Max Dixon, 16, in January, court hears

Two teenage boys were murdered in the street by four youths and a man in his 40s who had mistaken them for the perpetrators of an earlier attack on a house in Bristol linked to a long-running postcode rivalry, a court has heard.

Mason Rist, 15, and Max Dixon, 16, were fatally attacked in Ilminster Avenue, in the Knowle West area of Bristol, on the evening of 27 January this year.
