A fourth teenager has been charged with murder, in connection with the fatal stabbing of teenager Thomas Taylor in Bedford.

Thomas died last Wednesday, after being fatally stabbed by a gang of men, near to Bedford bus station.

It was yesterday confirmed three teenagers had been charged with murder, and are appearing at Luton Magistrates' Court this morning.

Ahmed Adam, 18, from Mardale Close, Kempston - and two other boys aged 16 and 17, who cannot be named because of their age - were arrested on Friday (January 10th) in connection with Thomas' death.

They will now be joined by 18-year-old Bennett Ndenkeh, of Midland Road, Bedford. Ndenkeh was arrested on Saturday and charged with murder yesterday.

Bedfordshire Police say that a 16-year-old boy who was also arrested on Saturday, has now been bailed as enquiries continue.

An appeal for information into the murder is ongoing.
