Woman charged with murder of UK war vet

A 35-year-old woman has been charged with the murder of a decorated war veteran who was found dead in his home in Britain.

William Davis, 92, was found collapsed at his Hobley Street residence in Willenhall, West Midlands, on Sunday evening.

He died as a result of severe head injuries, West Midlands Police said.

The woman will appear before magistrates in Wolverhampton tomorrow morning, a spokeswoman for the force said.

At a press conference held by the force earlier this week, Detective Superintendent Richard Baker described Mr Davis as fiercely independent decorated war veteran who was father to two, grandfather to four and a great-grandfather to one.
