Two men have been charged with the murder of a Chasetown man in 2010.

Richard Deakin, 27, died after he was shot in bed in his Meadway Street home.

Darryl Dickens, 33, and David Harrison, 62, both from the Bilston area, have been charged with murder.

The latter is also charged with robbery and the possession of a firearm – both relating to an incident in Dudley in January 2008.

The men have been remanded in custody to appear before magistrates in Cannock on Friday (January 6).
