A court has heard that an electrician was shot dead by a teen after he made a comment at the teen's female friend saying she "had a nice bum". 18-year-old Bradley Blundell allegedly shot 34-year-old electrician John Pordage in the chest outside a BP garage on August 5, 2017, in Chelmsford, Essex. The teen, a friend who is unnamed for legal reasons, and 18-year-old Ella Colgate were in her blue Ford Fiesta on their way to pick up a stolen Avril motorcycle.

The jurors heard that the three teens went to a few garages to get fuel for the motorbike but Colgate's card kept getting declined at all of them, the Daily Mail reported. They finally landed up at the BP garage where they started filling the fuel in a can. It was at this point that Pordage approached the area with his friend Jay Samuels.
