Drug Dealer Victim in Wolverhampton Drive-By Shooting

0:00On March 20, jurors in a Wolverhampton drive by Shooting Trial have learned that the victim was a drug dealer. The shooting happened on March 4, 2025, at 3.19 p.m. on Eastfield Road. Twenty-four-year-old Neil Graham was hit by a bullet while standing with two others near an electricity box. He died right there at the scene in broad daylight. Judge Michael Chambers gave these directions to the jury before the prosecution's closing speech. He made it clear that men were involved in drug dealing and everyone agrees on that point. The main suspect, Israel May, fled the country and has not been caught. Five other defendants are facing charges in the case at Wolverhampton Crown Court. The trial continues as the jury weighs all this evidence in a case tied to the city's underworld.
