Two teenage boys have been charged with the murder of a 13-year-old.

Jahziah Coke died after he was stabbed at his home in Oldbury last Thursday, West Midlands Police said.

In a statement, his mother said: “Jahziah was a very polite, kind and family-orientated young man.

“He was very loving and always smiling. His smile would light up the room. He was very kind-hearted.”

The two teenagers, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were arrested on Sunday.

A man in his 40s has also been charged with assisting an offender.

All three are being held in police custody and will appear at Birmingham magistrates today.
