Sheffield Magistrates’ Court heard on November 24 how Jabari Fanty, aged 18, of Broadhead Road, Deepcar, Sheffield, has been charged with the murder of 20-year-old Ramey Salem, who was also known as Ramey Saleh.

Mr Salem was allegedly shot in a property on Grimesthorpe Road South, Burngreave, Sheffield, around 1am, on November 16.

Police revealed Mr Salem was found with serious injuries and taken to hospital where he later died.

A further Sheffield Magistrates’ Court hearing on November 25 also heard how Aaron Yanbeck, aged 18, of Abbeydale Road, Sheffield, has also been charged with the murder of Ramey Salem.

Mr Fanty and Mr Yanbeck have also been charged with conspiracy to commit murder at Osgathorpe Park, Pitsmoor, on October 31, conspiracy to possess a firearm with intent to endanger life between October 3 and November 17 and to possessing an offensive weapon.

Both cases have been committed to Sheffield Crown Court for a further joint hearing on November 26.
