A man has been charged with the murder of teenager Alan Cartwright, after he was stabbed to death while riding a bicycle with friends.

Joshua Williams, 18, of Davenant Road, north London, will appear at Highbury Corner magistrates court on Saturday charged with murder and conspiracy to rob, Scotland Yard said.

An 18-year-old man remains in custody after a warrant of further detention was granted.

A 17-year-old boy and a 21-year-old man arrested following Cartwright’s death have been bailed.

Police released footage of the moment the schoolboy was stabbed in the chest as he cycled along a busy road in Islington, north London.

He managed to continue riding a short distance after the attack in Caledonian Road last Friday, but collapsed and was later pronounced dead at the scene.

A postmortem examination found that Cartwright died from a single stab wound to the chest.
