TWO teenagers have been charged with murder over the stabbing of a 16-year-old boy.
Police officers were called to a disturbance at a residential address on Bracken Avenue in Shrublands, Croydon, just before 1am on Thursday.
Cameron Smith was found with stab wounds and was pronounced dead just after 1.30am despite efforts from the emergency services.
On Monday police charged two teenagers, an unnamed 15-year-old who was arrested in Brighton, and 18-year-old Romain La Pierre of Amber Grove, Cricklewood, with Cameron’s murder and an additional charge of robbery.
Both have been remanded in police custody and will appear at Bromley Magistrates’ Court today.
Police said investigations are ongoing and have urged anyone with information to call the incident room on 0208 721 4961, or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
