Best friends Max Dixon and Mason Rist were on their way to buy pizza when they were senselessly ‘hunted down’ and murdered by a machete gang in a case of mistaken identity. Forming a close bond from an early age, Max, 16, and Mason, 15, had grown up together. They went to the same nursery, junior and secondary school and spent their time chatting and gaming on the PlayStation. January 27 was no different – the teenagers wanted to spend time together. CCTV shows Max calling round Mason’s house in Ilminster Avenue, Knowle, Bristol, at 11.13pm and the pair can be seen walking down the street to go and pick up a pizza.

This is the moment a bike-riding phone thief got his instant comeuppance after a diner hurled a cafe chair at the criminal as he attempted to flee. The thief had just snatched a phone out of a woman’s hands before he attempted to speed past two diners enjoying breakfast outside a cafe. But one of the diners, having witnessed the theft, got up and threw her chair at the criminal he was getting away.
