Tributes to ‘loved’ pensioner found dead at Coventry home as boy, 16, and woman, 44, charged with murder
A WOMAN and teenage boy have been charged with murder after a pensioner was found dead at his home.
Tributes have poured in for Michael Brady, 74, after his body was found at a property in Coventry, West Midlands, on Monday.
A police tent was put up outside the house and the area was cordoned off.
Cops confirmed the arrests of the 16-year-old boy and 44-year-old Antoinette Sheppard in a statement today and said that the suspects remain in custody.
Mr Brady’s family released a picture of him as they “continue to grieve in private.”
One devastated neighbour told Coventry Live: “To think this has happened here is scary.
“It makes me not want to leave the house.”
A spokesperson for West Midlands Police said: “Two people are due in court today after being charged with murder following the discovery of a man’s body at an address in Coventry earlier this week.
“Antoinette Sheppard, aged 44, and a 16-year-old boy, who can’t be named for legal reasons, have jointly been charged with murder.
“They have both been held in police custody and are due at Coventry Magistrates Court today.”
