Shaquan Fearon, who was fatally stabbed in Brockley, on September 3, last year
Two teenage boys are due to go on trial at the Old Bailey accused of murdering a 17-year-old in Brockley.
Shaquan Fearon, who lived in Crofton Park, died in hospital after he was stabbed in Turnham Road on Thursday, September 3, last year.
A second teenager, Junior Inneh, 18, was also taken to hospital with stab wounds but later discharged.
The defendants, aged 15 and 16, who cannot be named for legal reasons, deny charges of murder, attempted murder and wounding with intent.
Prosecutor Brian O’Neill QC will open his case tomorrow after a jury is sworn in for the trial, which is set to last four weeks.
