Two more men have been charged with the murder of an east London teenager, taking the total number of accused to six.

Rickell Rogers, 21, and Sheku Jallow, 22, both of no fixed abode, were arrested on Tuesday and are set to appear at Hendon Magistrates' Court on Thursday, Scotland Yard said.

Along with four other men, they are charged over the fatal stabbing of Marcel Addai in Hoxton, Hackney.

The 17-year-old was found with stab wounds on the St John's Estate after police were called to reports of an assault.

Witnesses described him being chased by up to 15 people before he died.

The London Ambulance Service attended the scene but he was pronounced dead at 11.47pm.

His family said they had been left "totally devastated" by his death.

Momar Faye, 18, of no fixed abode, appeared in custody at Hendon Magistrates' Court on 15 September and was remanded in custody until a hearing at the Old Bailey on September 17, police said.

Sodiq Adebayo, 22, Akeem Gbadamosi, 21, and Eugene Ocran, 19, remain in custody to appear at the Old Bailey at currently unconfirmed dates.
