Tattoo artist used blade to kill chef lan

- OLIVIA KELLEHER

A TATTOO artist who attacked a young chef with a sword has been found guilty of murder.

Jurors at the Central Criminal Court in Cork took just over four hours to unanimously convict Dylan Scannell of the murder of dad Ian Baitson.

The loved ones of the 33-year-old victim hugged each other and wept when the verdict was returned.

The jury at the week-long trial heard evidence that Scannell, 31, struck Mr Baitson from behind the left knee with a sword at the Eurospar car park on Newtown Road in Cobh, Co Cork on the evening of March 15, 2024.
