Following their arrest on suspicion of killing a 16-year-old kid by stabbing him to death, two adolescent lads were remanded in custody.
In the aftermath of the incident near the Cock Hotel on Harborough Road, Kingsthorpe, on Wednesday at around 3.35 p.m., Rohan Shand, also known as Fred to his family and friends, passed away.
On Saturday morning, the two Northampton-born boys, ages 16 and 14, appeared before the local magistrates.
The pair, who cannot be named for legal reasons, will appear next at Northampton Crown Court on Monday.
Two men, aged 49 and 21, also from Northampton, who were arrested in connection with Fred’s death have both been released with no further action.
Officers would still like to speak to witnesses, anyone with information, or anyone with CCTV, doorbell, or dash-cam footage of the area at the time.
