Cody fisher murder: 2 men are charged with stabbing the 23 year old in Digbeth

Police have charged two men with the murder of Cody Fisher who was fatally stabbed at a nightclub in Birmingham on Boxing Day.

Kami Carpenter, aged 21, and Remy Gordon, aged 22, have this evening been charged with murder and affray.

The pair from Birmingham have been remanded into custody to appear before Birmingham Magistrates Court on Monday (2 Jan).

A 22-year-old man also arrested on suspicion of 23-year-old Cody’s murder has been released on bail while our enquiries continue.

Cody was stabbed on the dance floor of the Crane nightclub in Digbeth, and the venue has since had its licence suspended.

Detective Chief Inspector Ian Ingram, from our homicide unit, said: “This is a significant development in our investigation as we seek to get justice for Cody, his family and friends.

“We’ve received fantastic support from the public who’ve really helped us in our enquiries so far.

“However, we’re still really keen to hear from anyone with information who has not already spoken to us. Every piece of information helps our investigation.”

Four other people have also been arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender. Two were held in London yesterday, and two were held in the capital this morning.

A knife has been recovered as part of the investigation.

DCI Ian Ingram, leading the investigation, said today: “We now have seven people in custody and continue to build a picture of the events that led to the tragic loss of this young man’s life.

A planned event on New Year’s Eve has been cancelled by the venue.

We continue to work with other venues in Birmingham to ensure the safety of people at bars and clubs in the city.
