Three teenage boys have been charged with murder in connection with the death of a man found fatally injured in the street.

Two 14-year-olds and another youth, 15, are to appear at Leicester Magistrates' Court later.

They have been charged following the death of 64-year-old John Donovan, after what police described as an "incident" in the city centre.

Mr Donovan was found injured in King Street, Leicester, on September 2 and died in hospital on Friday.

Leicestershire Police said a third 14-year-old boy arrested in connection with the inquiry has been released with no further action.
