A 20-year-old man has been found guilty of stabbing a 43-year-old man to death in Cardiff.

A jury found Georgie Tannetta, from Trowbridge, guilty of murder at Newport Crown Court on Thursday.

James Brogan, from St Mellons, was found with serious injuries at Coleford Drive on 12 November 2024 and died in hospital shortly after.

At the time of his death, Mr Brogan's family described him as "generous, caring and thoughtful - a comedian who loved making people smile and laugh".

Tannetta will be sentenced on 27 June.
