A 12-year-old girl has been charged with manslaughter after a grandfather was attacked while walking his dog in a park near his home.
Grandfather Bhim Kohli, 80, died in hospital after being attacked by a group of young people while in Franklin Park in Braunstone Town in September, Leicestershire Police said.
The force said in a statement: “The girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has been charged with manslaughter and is due to appear at Leicester Youth Court sitting at Leicester Magistrates’ Court today.
“A 15-year-old boy has already been charged with the murder of Mr Kohli.”
The 15-year-old boy was charged with murder three days after Mr Kohli was injured and is due to appear at Leicester Crown Court later this week.
The father-of-three was remembered as the “joker of the family” by his loved ones after his death.
