An 18-year-old London man was accused of scheme to kill regarding the shooting of Black lives matter activist Sasha Johnson, who remained hospitalized in critical condition, British police said on Friday.
Cameron Deriggs will show up at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Saturday, London’s Metropolitan Police said in an explanation. Deriggs was one of five men arrested in the case on Wednesday on suspicion of attempted murder. The other four were released on bail until next month.
Johnson, a 27-year-old mother of two, was at a meeting on Sunday when four men burst in and started shooting, media reports have said.
Johnson has been a main figure in the Black lives matter movement in Britain and is a member of the Taking the Initiative Party’s executive leadership committee.
