The road, in Westcotes, was closed while a heavy police presence remained at the scene overnight. The force later announced a murder inquiry had been launched.

Two 16-year-olds from Leicester and one 17-year old from Thurmaston have been charged but cannot be named due to legal reasons.

All four teenagers are due to appear at Leicester Magistrates Court on 2 October.

The murder investigation continues and Leicestershire police are still urging anyone who may have information that would help their enquiries to contact them.
