A 23-year-old man charged with the murder of Dwaine Douglas has appeared before magistrates.
Otis Brown, of Frant Road, Thornton Heath, appeared before Croydon Magistrates' Court this morning charged with murdering the 18-year-old.
Brown, dressed in a blue Nike sport top, spoke only to confirm his name during the short hearing.
Mr Douglas, from Tulse Hill, died after being stabbed in the heart in an alleged street fight last Friday night.
Brown was remanded in custody until May 31 when he will appear before the Old Bailey.
His mum, who was in the court's public gallery, blew her son a kiss as he was led away.
