- Published
The man who died following an outbreak of violence in Bristol has been named as 32-year-old Aranit Lleshi.
Two more men are due to appear in the city's magistrates court on Wednesday after Mr Lleshi was fatally stabbed and six others injured in the Brislington area on 24 May.
Radian Lika, 35, and Nikola Palaj, 28, both from London, have been charged with violent disorder.
Four men appeared at the court on Saturday for the same offence.
Mr Lleshi, from London, died while en-route to hospital following the violence, and a forensic post-mortem confirmed he died from multiple stab wounds.
Police said his family are being supported by family liaison officers and the investigation into his death is ongoing.
The charges against Mr Lika, of Watkinson Road, Islington and Mr Palaj of Heavitree Road, London, mean six people have now been charged in connection with the incident.
The four men who appeared in court on Saturday were remanded in custody to next appear at Bristol Crown Court on 27 June.
Two people remain on bail after being arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender.
