Machete teenager is found guilty of murder at Leeds flat
Yorkshire Evening Post
|October 03, 2025
A ruthless teenage thug high on nitrous oxide murdered a man with a machete in cold blood, a jury has decided.
Saymore Kwashira suffered catastrophic internal bleeding after Romaine James thrust the lengthy weapon into his stomach.
James maintains he was acting in self-defence, but following a nine-day trial at Leeds Crown Court the jury unanimously found him guilty of murder.
The 18-year-old had been taking the nitrous oxide - also known as laughing gas - at an address in Winrose Avenue, Belle Isle, in the early hours of November 11 last year.
