NOTTINGHAM, England, Mar 24, CMC – A 15-year-old girl has been charged with murder in connection with the fatal stabbing of Bermudian teenager Lyrico Steede in England.
Nottinghamshire police said she was the fifth person to be charged in the investigation of the 17-year-old, who was stabbed in an attack at Hempshill Lane Recreation Ground before he was chased and left with serious injuries on the outskirts of this East Midlands City on February 13.
He died in hospital six days later.
Kasharn Campbell, 19, of no fixed address, and two 17-year-old boys — who cannot be named for legal reasons — have been charged with murder and are to go on trial on October 2.
A 17-year-old girl has also been charged with assisting an offender and is to appear at Nottingham Youth Court on April 3.
Steede moved to Nottingham five years ago to live with family and his Bermudian relatives have organised a fundraiser to take his body home for the funeral.
His mother had only recently moved to Britain.
