An 18-year-old man has been charged with the murder of a 34-year-old who was fatally shot outside an Essex petrol station.
Bradley Blundell has been extradited to the UK from the Netherlands after attending a police station in Amsterdam.
He was charged on Tuesday with the murder of John Pordage who was fatally shot in the chest at a BP garage, Essex Police said.
Mr Pordage died in hospital after the shooting at the garage near the Army and Navy roundabout in Baddow Road, Chelmsford, in the early hours of August 5 last year.
Blundell, of Cromwell Close, Boreham, Essex, is also charged with possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life, perverting the course of justice and handling stolen goods.
He is due to appear at Chelmsford Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday.
