A TEENAGER will appear in court today charged with the murder of 16-year-old Jimmy Mizen.
Jake Fahri, 19, is accused of stabbing the popular churchgoing schoolboy to death at the Three Cooks bakery in Lee, south-east London, on Saturday.
Jimmy was killed the day after his 16th birthday as he returned home from buying his first lottery ticket with one of his brothers.
Fahri, of Lee, will appear before Sutton Magistrates Court today, Scotland Yard said.
Jimmy, a 6ft 4in committed Christian, was the 13th teenager to be murdered in London so far this year.
The GCSE student's 26-year-old brother Tommy ran to the scene and cradled him as he lay bleeding to death.
Jimmy's parents, Barry, 56, and Margaret, 55, have paid loving tribute to their "saint" of a son.
