Second man charged in connection with death of Dean Fountaine

A man has been charged with conspiracy to commit robbery in connection to the fatal stabbing of a man in Luton this summer.

Peter Janoski, of no fixed address, was charged by detectives from the Bedfordshire Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit yesterday (Monday).

He appeared at Hatfield Magistrates' Court yesterday having been charged with conspiracy to rob Dean Fountaine, who was fatally stabbed in June, and witness intimidation.

The 43- year-old has been remanded into custody ahead of an appearance at Luton Crown Court on Friday, October 13.

Two further men, one in his 30s and the other a teenager, were arrested last week for assisting an offender in relation to the case.

Both men have since been bailed pending further enquiries.

A murder investigation was launched after police were called to Ashton Road, Luton on Monday 19 June following reports of a stabbing.

Mr Fountaine, 37, from Leighton Buzzard, was taken to hospital with serious injuries but was pronounced dead the following day.

A 19-year-old man from Luton has been charged with murder and is due to stand trial in December.
