A teenager has been charged with the murder of a “talented” Harlow Town footballer.

Francois Kablan was stabbed to death in Southwark, south-east London, on Wednesday at around 5.30pm.

He was found on Great Dover Street after reports of a fight involving several boys.

The 19-year-old played for Harlow Town reserves, and scored a hat-trick in his last game for the club.

The Club is devastated to hear the news that that one of our Reserves players, Francois Kablan, tragically passed away yesterday.

Our thoughts and deepest sympathies are with Francois' family and friends at this incredibly difficult time.https://t.co/RHlZzSrbCy pic.twitter.com/pLEdbbyZkC

In a statement, Reserves Manager Adam Connolly said: Francois was a wonderful person and player. A lot of our players went to the same college as Francois, so it’s been hard on everyone within the squad to hear of this tragic news.

“On his last game for Harlow, he scored a superb hat-trick to win us the game and walk away with the match ball. He was certainly a talented footballer and one who could have gone on to feature for the first team.

“On behalf of all of the squad, and everyone at the club, our thoughts are with his family and friends.”

A 17-year-old boy has been was charged with murder on Saturday night, while a 15-year-old was charged with being in possession of an offensive weapon.

Both will appear at Bromley Youth Court on Monday.

A 16-year-old boy who was arrested on Friday on suspicion of grievous bodily harm has been released on bail, as have a 20-year-old man and an 18-year-old woman who were arrested on suspicion of murder.

Ex-NFL player Terrelle Pryor, girlfriend charged after he was stabbed in ‘tussle’

The two, who had been dating for about a year, were in what witnesses told authorities was a “volatile” relationship, according to the Post-Gazette, and police were summoned to an apartment building shortly after 4 a.m. Saturday. Officers followed a trail of blood to a Mercedes-Benz registered to Pryor. He, along with Briston and two other women, had left for UPMC Mercy, where he was initially described as being in extremely critical condition.

As officers were taking the women to headquarters for questioning, one said “she was just defending herself and had to do it,” the complaint said. Another officer said he heard one of the women say “the only reason I’m here was to make sure that he didn’t die,” and “we should have just let him die.”

Earlier in the evening the couple had gone out for dinner and began to argue with Pryor returning to the apartment and the women going to a club. He was waiting for them in a hallway when they returned to the apartment, according to the complaint, and Pryor allegedly grabbed Briston and a “tussle,” as the complaint described it, began. That’s when Pryor, clutching his chest, ran from the building.

According to the Post-Gazette, Briston had a bruise on her nose and was missing two false fingernails.

Pryor is out of football this season and last month said he would play for no team but the Steelers. A quarterback at Ohio State, he was a supplemental draft pick by the Oakland Raiders in 2011 and his greatest success came as a wide receiver with the Cleveland Browns in 2015 and 2016. He also played for the Washington Redskins, Buffalo Bills, New York Jets and Jacksonville Jaguars, who released him in September.

Gardaí believe the fatal stabbing of Willie Lynch (35) on December 30 was triggered by a trivial dispute over Christmas spending.

The well-known pool and darts player was found with serious stab wounds at his home on the main street of Pallaskenry, Co Limerick, at 5pm on Saturday.

Despite desperate efforts by paramedics, Mr Lynch was pronounced dead at the scene.

Gardaí later sealed off four areas as potential crime scenes – William Lynch’s blood-stained home, a local supermarket and two other Pallaskenry properties.

Several areas were examined for what were understood to be blood spatters.

The 29-year-old man will appear before Newcastlewest District Court at 10.30am on Tuesday, January, 2, 2018.
