We have charged a boy with murder after a teenager was stabbed in Birmingham city centre.
The 15-year-old, has been charged with the murder of Muhammad Hassam Ali.
The 17-year-old was found seriously injured just before 3.30pm on Saturday afternoon. He was rushed to hospital but sadly later died.
He will appear before Birmingham Magistrates Court tomorrow (Thurs).
A second boy, also aged 15 has been released on police bail with strict conditions.
Our investigation is ongoing as we continue to analyse CCTV and examine forensic opportunities.
Detective Inspector Michelle Thurgood, from the Homicide unit, said: “Our thoughts remain with the family and friends of Muhammad.
“We have now charged a boy over Muhammad’s death but our enquiries continue. We are still keen to speak to anyone who was in the area on Saturday just before 3.30pm and would urge anyone with information to get in touch.”
