A 14-year-old youth has appeared in court accused of murdering a 12-year-old Boston boy.

Roberts Buncis was found dead on ground off Alcorn Green in Fishtoft, near Boston, on 12 December, just two days before his 13th birthday.

The youth, who cannot be named for legal reasons, appeared before a High Court judge, Mr Justice Jeremy Baker, at Nottingham Crown Court via video-link on Friday.

He was not required to enter a plea and will next appear at Lincoln Crown Court on 7 May.

The defendant's trial is due to take place on 14 June.
