New Year's Eve Killing: Man Charged


A man has appeared in court accused of murdering New Year’s Eve peacemaker Frazer Bradshaw who was beaten to death when a pub fight spilled into the street.

The 33 year-old victim (pictured) suffered fatal injuries outside the St. James public house, High Road, Cowley, Uxbridge, in the early hours of January 1.

An ambulance rushed him to Charing Cross Hospital where he was treated for serious head injuries, but after three days on a life-support machine he tragically passed away on January 4.

Witnesses say Mr. Bradshaw was trying to break up a fight between two groups at the private party

Homeless Nathan Doherty, 20, appeared in custody at Uxbridge Magistrates’ Court charged with murder and was remanded in custody to the Old Bailey for a plea and case management hearing on April 15.

Two other suspects, aged 26 and 21, were arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm and have been bailed pending further police enquiries.

Another suspect, aged 23, has been arrested on suspicion of murder and is also currently on police bail.
