A FIFTH person has been charged and has appeared in court over the murder of Andrew Flamson, who police believe was deliberately knocked down and killed in Coventry in July.
The 40-year-old father of one was walking in Grosvenor Road on the night of July 12 with a friend and family when they were struck by a silver Ford Mondeo.
Mr Flamson was later pronounced dead in hospital after suffering fatal head injuries.
