Simarjeet Singh Nangpal, 17, was killed in a suspected fight

Four men have been charged with the murder of 17-year-old Simarjeet Singh Nangpal.

The Metropolitan Police said officers were called to a reported fight in Burket Close in Hounslow, west London, at 00:15 GMT on Wednesday.

Mr Singh Nangpal, 17, was found with stab injuries and died at the scene.

Amandeep Singh, 21, Manjit Singh, 27, Ajmeer Singh, 31, and Poran Singh, 71, will appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court later.

The Met said the four men, all from Southall in west London, were arrested at the scene.

Two of them were taken to hospital due to injuries they had sustained before officers arrived.

Simarjeet was from the Southall area and his family continues to be supported by specialist officers, the force added.

Det Supt Figo Forouzan said: "Our thoughts remain with Simarjeet's family at this extremely difficult time. No family should have to go through what they are experiencing.

"This incident will undoubtedly cause wider concern, and I want to reassure the community that we will do everything in our power to find those responsible.

"In the coming days you will see extra officers out on patrol in your area. Please do speak to them about any concerns you may have."
