Bingham man charged with murder after stabbing in Nottingham city centre

A man from Bingham is among three charged suspects with murder following a fatal stabbing.

Nottinghamshire Police were called to High Cross Leys, at the junction of Huntingdon Street and Woodborough Road, in Nottingham city centre around 7.50am on Friday (April 28).

Davices Anderson, 22, was treated by paramedics at the scene and taken to the hospital where he died at 9.36am.

Following an extensive investigation, two men and a woman have been charged with murder.

David St Anthony Francis, 60, of Swale Grove, Bingham; Courtney McCleary, 53, of High Cross Leys; and Lisa Barlow, 44, of High Cross Leys; are due to appear at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court today.

Detective inspector Clare Gibson said: “We are pleased to have now made further progress in our investigation by charging five suspects in connection with this attack which resulted in the tragic loss of such a young life.

Two more suspects, Danny O’Keefe, 49, of Keswick Court, Sneinton, and Gregory Bailey, 50, of Comyn Gardens, St Ann’s, have been charged with assisting an offender and are also due to appear in court today.

A further arrest in connection with the investigation was made yesterday, May 1, when a 40-year-old woman was detained on suspicion of murder.

Three other suspects previously arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender, a 39-year-old man, and two women aged 33 and 44, have been released on bail while inquiries continue.

“Davices’s death has had a devastating impact on his family who are continuing to receive support from specialist officers. As ever, our thoughts remain with them at this incredibly difficult time,” added the inspector leading the investigation.
