LONDON - A 19-year-old man appeared in court on Thursday charged with the murder of Jimmy Mizen, a teenager who died in an unprovoked attack at a London baker's shop.
Mizen died in the arms of his older brother after he was slashed in the throat in The Three Cooks in Lee, southeast London, on Saturday, a day after his 16th birthday.
Jake Fahri, also from Lee, appeared at Sutton Magistrates Court and was remanded in custody to appear at the Old Bailey on August 21.
Mizen, who had gone out to buy his first lottery ticket at the time of the attack, was the 13th teenager to be killed in London this year.
