A 15-year-old boy will appear in court today charged with the murder of a man stabbed to death as he walked home from work.
Yajay Sudra was stabbed in an apparent attempted mugging as he returned from Birmingham International Airport where he worked in a book store.
Mr Sudra, 21, managed to stagger from the scene of the stabbing on Marsh Lane in Erdington to his home, where he was found by his mother on the doorstep of their home.
He died in her arms from a single stab wound to the heart following the attack on July 9.
