Teenagers remanded over shooting

Two teenagers have appeared in court charged with gunning down a man as he returned from a Christmas shopping trip.

The 15-year-old and 16-year-old boys, who cannot be named for legal reasons, are accused of murdering Craig Brown in Hammersmith, West London.

Mr Brown, 20, of Shepherds Bush, was shot shortly after parking his car in Loftus Road, close to the Queens Park Rangers football ground, on Christmas Eve.

No applications for bail were made during the hearing at West London Youth Court and the pair will next appear in court on January 27.
