A second man has been charged with the murder of Garston teenager Vinny Waddington.
Luke Kendrick, 25, of Wharfdale Road, Garston, has also been charged with attempted wounding with intent.
He will appear before Liverpool and Knowsley Magistrates Court tomorrow, Friday November 27.
Ryan Bate, 23, had previously been charged with the murder of the Garston teen, and appeared before Liverpool magistrates on Monday November 16.
Bate was also charged with attempted wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm to a man called Francis Humphries.
Vinny, 18, was riding a scrambler bike when he was shot dead by a man in an Audi at 9pm on Tuesday, July 14.
The scrambler bike was being driven by Mr Humphries.
Police said at the time the shooting was targeted but Vinny’s family said he was not a gang member.
In a statement following his death his family said: “He was a normal 18-year-old young intelligent lad from the inner city who any working class family would relate to.
“This handsome boy meant the world to his dad along with his sister, brother, grandparents and entire family.
“He is leaving behind his dog, Bruno, who is going to deeply miss him, they were characters together – Vincent with his cheeky smile and Bruno being Bruno.
“Vincent was a huge part of his community and loved by everyone. When he was asked to be a godfather he couldn’t wait and now sadly that moment won’t come.”
