Two teenagers from Lewisham will appear at the Old Bailey today charged with the fatal stabbing of a 17-year-old in Brockley.

Shaquan Mario Fearon was knifed to death last Thursday (September 3) in Turnham Road.

Met Police officers were called to Spalding House at around 8pm.

Paramedics rushed Shaquan to a south London hospital but he died shortly after arrival.

He is the second teenager to be fatally stabbed in Lewisham in the last six months, and the ninth victim in London overall this year.

Another teenager was also hospitalised with stab wounds, but has since been discharged.

The two 15-year-old suspects, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were charged on Sunday (September 6) with murder and wounding with intent.

They are due to appear in custody at the Old Bailey later today.
