TWO men charged with the murder of teenager Kadeem Blackwood appeared in court today.

Callum Campbell and Michael Hamblett-Sewell are both accused of killing 15-year-old Kadeem, who died after he was shot in the chest on Caxton Street recreation ground, in Derby, in November last year.

Campbell, 19, of Osmaston Park Road, Derby, and Hamblett-Sewell, 20, of Marlborough Road, Allenton, appeared at Nottingham Crown Court so that the Crown Prosecution Service could extend their custody time limits until after their trial, which starts on October 5.

They appeared alongside Ashley Campbell, 24, of Osmaston Park Road, who is charged with assisting an offender.
