The verdicts in the Hillsborough inquests will be delivered on Tuesday, April 26.

The court reconvened in Warrington this afternoon to be told the jury had reached a verdict.

Earlier coroner Sir John Goldring had told jury members he would accept a majority decision on the question of unlawful killing.

Last Wednesday the court had been told that jurors were unable to reach a unanimous decision on that topic, after agreeing on all other decisions.

Court then resumed at 12.20pm when coroner Sir John Goldring said at least seven of the jury had agreed in respect of the question of unlawful killing.

The jurors retired to consider their verdict on Wednesday, April 6 after more than two years of evidence from parties including survivors, families, police and other officials.

The jury have had to complete a general questionnaire of 14 questions and record times and causes of deaths for each of the 96.

The fresh inquests were ordered in 2012 after the publication of the Hillsborough Independent Panel (HIP)'s report in to the 1989 tragedy, which claimed the lives of 96 Liverpool FC fans.

Sir John told the jury they would return to court at 11am tomorrow to deliver their conclusions. The ECHO will be at the hearing and providing live updates and reaction on our website.
