Man in court over stabbing

A MAN has appeared in court charged with murder after a teenager was fatally stabbed in the neck during a fight outside a boxing venue.

Tyrone Andrew, 21, was flown from Madrid to Heathrow after he was held in Barcelona on a European Arrest Warrant, West Midlands Police said.

Reagan Asbury, 19, was knifed in a brawl which erupted during an event at Walsall Town Hall on October 14 last year.

A Birmingham Magistrates’ Court spokesman said Andrew, of St Helen’s Street, Derby, was not required to enter a plea and had been remanded in custody to appear at Crown court on Monday.
