He has been charged with murdering Prescod sometime between October 20 and 22.

Holder is also charged with intent to maim, disfigure, disable and causing serious bodily harm to 21-year-old Daniesha Williams; intent to maim, disfigure, disable and wounding Elvis Farrell; discharging a firearm along Silver Hill in a public place and in a manner which placed Sahiya Amin, 29, in danger of death and serious bodily harm and using a firearm without a valid licence.
