JURORS today watched footage of a man slumping to the ground and being dragged away by a relative shortly after he was allegedly shot.
The short mobile phone clip was shown at the trial of Jordan Owens, 27, who is charged with murdering Jamie Lee, 23, in Castlemilk, Glasgow on July 8 2017.
DC Martin Conlon had been tasked with studying the footage recorded that day.
He was asked to try and identify people seen as part of a "widespread police investigation" into the alleged shooting.
Prosecutor Lindsey Dalziel put to the detective it appeared the footage stemmed from "two opposing groups coming together".
DC Conlon: "That is fair."
The officer compiled a report on the recording which Miss Dalziel took him through.
He identified Jamie Lee as one of those spotted.
Asked about that, Miss Dalziel put to him: "He is dressed in black, observed walking left to right then collapsing on the ground - that is what you put?"
DC Conlon: "Yes."
The detective said he had concluded there had been seven people in each "group" in the area that day.
The trial was then shown a still photograph from the footage.
It was described as two people - including a relative - said to be "helping drag the deceased (Jamie) across the grass".
Meanwhile, Detective sergeant James Craig, 42, told jurors mobile phone photos were seized from the night of the incident.
One photo, taken before 8pm was displayed on the jury’s screen.
DS Craig described one figure as: “...A man assessed to be but not identified as Jordan Owen walking to the position of the play park.
“He is holding a bottle under his right arm and an unidentified item across his stomach.”
The sergeant also identified further pictures of several men carrying weapons including machetes at the scene.
Earlier pictures shown to jurors identified Jamie Lee lying near people on a grass verge.
Another showed police officers arriving at the scene after two people were pictured on their phones.
Owens allegedly killed Jamie at an area of land near to Ballantay Terrace in Castlemilk.
Prosecutors claim the 27 year-old did "discharge a firearm" and that Jamie was struck on the body with a "projectile".
He is said to have been left so severely injured that he died the next day in Glasgow's Southern General hospital.
Owens - also known as Owen - faces two separate charges of attempting to murder Joseph Lee and Jordan Loughery at the same place by also shooting at them that day.
He denies the charges.
The trial, before judge Lord Beckett, continues.
