Jay Webster threw a single punch which killed his best friend Benjamin Lloyd as they quarrelled in the street

CCTV cameras captured the moment a man killed his best friend after throwing a punch while they quarrelled drunkenly in the street.

As reported by Wales Online, Webster, 28, called it a "silly argument" then pushed Lloyd up against a window. Lloyd took two initial swings and missed - but Webster then punched Lloyd, 27, to the left side of his face with his right fist and he fell to the ground. The court was told Webster appeared "absolutely devastated" as he stood over his best friend frantically saying: "Get up Ben. Get up." Both of them then left the scene separately - but Lloyd was found unconscious the next morning in bed by his father.
