Two men charged with Oyebola murder

The BBC News reports that two men have been charged with the murder of former Brittish heavyweight champion James Oyebola.  Rene McKoy, 19, and Kanyanta Mulenga, 22, both of South London have been charged with murder and are due in court on Thursday.  With both men arrested in July, the police have given no indication of which one was the trigger man but apparently will charge both men with being culpable.  Oyebola was shot at a West London club after an altercation in which he asked his accused murderers to put out their cigarettes.  He passed away 5 days later when his life-support was turned off.  --Matt Goldstein
