UK rapper Ghetts, whose real name is Justin Clarke-Samuel, has been charged in connection with a fatal hit-and-run in Ilford, east London. Police say the 41-year-old artist was involved in a collision on 18 October in which a 20-year-old man was struck and later died in hospital.
The musician, long regarded as a leading figure in the UK grime scene, has been remanded in custody while investigations continue. The charge marks a major setback for an artist celebrated for his lyrical skill and influence on a generation of performers.
