A police van arrived at Westminster Magistrates Court on Thursday, 2 May, where Marcus Aurelio Arduini Monzo is appearing charged with the murder of 14-year-old Daniel Anjorin in Hainault. The teenager died on Tuesday as he walked to school. The 36-year-old dual Spanish-Brazilian national, of Newham, will appear in court having been charged with murder, two counts of attempted murder, two counts of grievous bodily harm, aggravated burglary, and possession of a bladed article, the Metropolitan Police said. Monzo is accused of crashing a van into a fence and then attacking two members of the public with a sword. It is alleged he then killed Daniel before seriously injuring two police officers.
Daniel was on his way to school on Tuesday morning when he was killed in northeast London. Four others were badly injured - including two police officers.
