A new trial has been ordered for two people found guilty of second-degree murder in a fatal attack on a man walking home with groceries in Calgary's Beltline.

Chantelle Campbell and Jarod Henry were found guilty of second-degree murder last year.

However, Crown lawyers have consented to both convictions being overturned and new trials have been ordered by Alberta's Court of Appeal.

"She's elated," said Campbell's lawyer Pawel Milczarek. "She's looking forward to presenting her side of the story to a jury."
