West Midlands Police have charged two teenage boys with the murder of 13-year-old Jahziah Coke.

In a statement released by West Midlands Police, the victim’s 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.”

“We have been carrying out CCTV enquiries in the area, but also need to hear from anyone with dash cam, doorbell, CCTV or phone footage that might help the investigation.”
