An Irishman has been jailed for killing an intruder who had forced his way into his home.
Dean Kerrie was just 17 when he stabbed Jack Power in the chest in July 2018.
The 25-year-old fisherman had put a window through and entered the Waterford property to confront him and accuse him of damaging his car.
Kerrie – now 21 – stabbed him once with a kitchen knife and the intruder collapsed and died at the scene.
A judge said that though he didn’t start the trouble, the convicted man had resorted to excessive and disproportionate violence by using a knife on someone who was unarmed.
