Two men have been charged with murder and arson over the fatal shooting of a 20-year-old in a car park more than three years ago.

Tamba Momodu was shot six times in Bridges Business Park in Horsehay, Telford, on 13 October 2020.

A burnt-out grey Skoda Karoq was later found at The Wrekin in nearby Wellington, which police believed to be connected to the shooting.

At Kidderminster Magistrates’ Court earlier, Deria Hassan, 32, of Octavia Court, Watford, and Mahamud Tarabi, 32, of Scaraway Terrace, Glasgow, were remanded in custody. They are due to appear on Friday before Wolverhampton Crown Court.

Mr Momodu was born in London in 2000 and moved to Telford with his family in 2018.
