A 16-year-old boy has been charged with murdering teenager Rhys Singh Bahia in Belgrave, Leicester last week.
The boy, who cannot be named because of his age, is also charged with causing grievous bodily harm with intent relating to the same incident in the Ross Walk area on Tuesday night. He is being held in custody and was due to appear at Leicester Youth Court, sitting at the magistrates’ court in Pocklingtons Walk.
Police and paramedics were called to the area on Tuesday night after receiving reports that two youths, both aged 17, had been seriously injured.
Rhys and the other teenager were taken to hospital. Medics could not save Rhys' life but the other teenager remains in a stable condition. He has also been charged with possession with intent to supply Class B drugs, Leicestershire Police said.
