A third person has been charged with murder over the fatal stabbing of a 16-year-old boy in north London.
Taye Faik died in Kendal Gardens, Edmonton, Enfield, at 23:27 BST on 1 October.
A 16-year-old girl was arrested on 3 November and now has been charged, the Metropolitan Police said.
Two others, Josiah Semper, 18, and Bernard Carroll, 19, were charged in November in connection with the death and remain in custody.
The 16-year-old girl is due to appear at the Old Bailey on Friday, 5 January.
Mr Semper, from Palmers Green, appeared at the same court on 21 November and Mr Carroll, from Winchmore Hill, is due to appear on 2 February.
Three others - a man aged 20 and two women aged 22 - were arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender and bailed.
A post-mortem examination confirmed Taye died as a result of sharp force trauma to the chest.
The Met said his family was being supported by specially trained officers. The force has appealed for witnesses.
