Lee Pomeroy death: 'Accused said he would kill' Lee Pomeroy death accused said 'I've done something bad'
(about 2 hours later)
A man accused of murdering a train passenger declared moments before stabbing him: "I'm going to kill this man", a court has heard. The man accused of murdering a passenger on a train called his ex-partner hours later and told her "I've done something bad", a court has heard.
Darren Pencille, 36, denies murdering 51-year-old Lee Pomeroy on a Guildford-to-London train on 4 January. Sarah Fry, who is the mother of Darren Pencille's son, said he called her during the evening and sent her a text, saying: "I'm sorry. I love you both."
Kayleigh Carter told the Old Bailey she witnessed the attack and the argument leading up to it. Mr Pencille, 36, denies murdering 51-year-old Lee Pomeroy on 4 January.
She said Mr Pencille appeared angry, while Mr Pomeroy was "really stern, stubborn" and "sort of patronising". His lawyer told the Old Bailey he did not deny stabbing Mr Pomeroy but said it was in self-defence.
The court had previously heard that Mr Pomeroy might have been "blocking" Mr Pencille's way after they boarded the same carriage of the London-bound train. Ms Fry told the court she received a call from her former partner at about 21:30 GMT on the night of the attack.
"He said, 'I've done something bad today and you'll later see it in the news'," she said.
She added: "I disconnected the call and that's the last time I spoke to him. That's all that was said."
Ms Fry said she received the text from Mr Pencille's phone in the early hours of the following morning.
Earlier at court, a passenger on the train said she had witnessed the argument leading to the stabbing.
Kayleigh Carter said Mr Pencille had appeared angry, while Mr Pomeroy was "really stern, stubborn" and "sort of patronising".
She told the court that the cause of the disagreement was unclear, but she recalled one of the men saying: "All I did was be in the way."
She added: "I thought it was really petty if it's just about that."

Justin Rouse QC, defending, asked Ms Carter whether she had the impression Mr Pomeroy was "picking on" Mr Pencille, who was of a smaller build. She said she saw Mr Pencille strike Mr Pomeroy but never saw a knife. "I thought I had seen someone being punched," she said.
She said: "I wouldn't say picking on him, but he was taunting him." Cross-examined by Justin Rouse QC, she said: "I wouldn't say (Mr Pomeroy was) picking on him, but he was taunting him."
The court has heard previously that Mr Pencille, of Wilbury Road, Farnham, does not deny stabbing Mr Pomeroy, but will argue he was acting in self-defence.
