A teenager accused of murdering teaching assistant Lindsay Birbeck has admitted helping to dispose of her body - but claimed an unnamed man had carried out the killing.

The 17-year-old suspect today claimed he had been approached by a stranger who offered to pay him to 'get rid of a body'. In a prepared statement, he said he was not present when Mrs Birbeck died, Lancs Live reports.
