Three teenage girls have been charged with manslaughter after a 75-year-old man died in London.
Fredi Rivero was attacked on Seven Sisters Road in Islington at around 11.35pm on Thursday and was treated by officers and paramedics at the scene. But he died in hospital on Friday. Three teenage girls, who are aged 14, 16 and 17, were arrested on suspicion of grievous bodily harm (GBH) before the man’s death. They have now been charged with manslaughter, reports Press Association. Police say a special post-mortem examination will be held in due course. Mr Rivero is thought to be a Bolivian national.
The girls will appear at Highbury Magistrates’ Court on Monday.
They cannot legally be named because of their age.
The Met said the victim’s family continue to be supported by specialist officers.
