Teenagers face prison for 'chocolate bar' killing
TWO teenagers have been told to expect jail after they admitted killing a promising graduate in a row over litter.
Evren Anil, 23, died from serious head injuries after being threatened with a knife and punched to the ground.
The argument started after one of the youths threw a half-eaten chocolate bar through his car window in Crystal Palace, south London, in August last year.
A 16-year-old from Thornton Heath, south London, pleaded guilty to manslaughter and knife possession on Monday as his trial was due to begin at the Old Bailey.
His plea could only be reported after his 17-year-old co-defendant, from Tottenham, north London, yesterday admitted the charges.
Judge Ann Goddard told the pair, who cannot be named because of their ages: "It seems to me custody is the appropriate outcome."
