A 36-year-old man is to appear in court charged with murdering a 14-year-old boy in a sword attack in east London.

Marcus Aurelio Arduini Monzo will appear at Barkingside Magistrates' Court having been charged by police yesterday.

Mr Monzo is accused of crashing a van into a fence in Laing Close just before 7am on Tuesday and then attacking two members of the public with a sword. The boy's family told Sky News he was"a wonderful child" who was"well loved" and"hard working", adding that his death"leaves a gaping wound in the family"."Any family will understand it's an absolute tragedy."

A friend of Daniel's told the Evening Standard newspaper that he was a keen footballer and Arsenal fan.
