Ronan Kanda: Man, 2 teenagers charged with murder

A man and two teenagers have been charged with the murder of 16-year-old Ronan Kanda, who tragically died last Wednesday after he was reportedly attacked with a knife.

According to West Midlands Police, the results of the post-mortem revealed that the school boy had died after being stabbed twice.


The fatal incident took place in Mount Road, Lanesfield, Wolverhampton, shortly before 21:00 BST last Wednesday. Ronan is supposed to have died at the scene.

According to media reports, Josiah Francis, 20, from Birmingham, and two 16-year-old boys whose names are withheld due to legal reasons will appear at Wolverhampton Magistrates’ Court on Monday.

A 15-year-old boy and 18-year-old man who were also arrested on suspicion of murder have been released on bail.

In a statement released by the West Midlands Police, Ronan's family has described him as a "kind-hearted and loving boy" who would do anything for anyone.

The family was quoted as saying, “We want everyone to pray for his soul now. We will always love you our son and my brother and you will live within us now.”

The UK weather forecast snow claims circulating online have been challenged by the Met Office, which has rejected suggestions that Britain is about to be hit by widespread snow, a major freeze or a “polar vortex”.

The forecaster said recent headlines about a “551-mile wall of rain and snow” and an imminent “polar vortex of snow and storms” were overly dramatic and did not reflect the current forecast.
