The jury in an Irishman's murder trial in Australia has been shown footage of a police interview recorded after the alleged incident.

Vincent Martin-Crowe is accused of murdering Kenny Meyler (21) at a house in Scarborough on February 10th last year.

Prosecutors have rejected a guilty plea to a manslaughter charge.

The court has heard police found information about Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous in Mr Crowe's home.

It was also told that he had taken drugs in the hours before he stabbed Mr Meyler in the neck.

Rebecca LeMay of the Australian Associated Press attended proceedings today.

She has described the content of the police video.
