The case of a man accused of unlawfully killing a father of four has been committed by Bicester magistrates to Oxford Crown Court for trial.

Timothy Deasy, 26, formerly of Tangmere Close, Bicester, but now living in Thame, was charged after the death of Ernest Berry.

Mr Berry, of Longlands, Stratton Audley, died after an incident outside the White Horse pub in Churchill Road, Bicester, on November 4 last year.

Deasy, who faces two further charges of assaulting two other people the same evening, was released on bail.
