Man charged with murder of father-in-law after 62-year-old 'deliberately driven at' in Wolverhampton
A man has been charged with the murder of his father-in-law who police believe was "deliberately driven at" in Wolverhampton this week.
Thomas Connors, 62, was left with serious injuries after a hit-and-run crash on Compton Road on Monday (September 11) at around 8pm.
Mr Connors has since died of his injuries and his son-in-law, William Connors, was charged with his murder last night.
The 27-year-old will appear before magistrates in Coventry today.
Thomas Connors's family have paid tribute to him, saying: "He was a lovely man and a devoted husband, father and grandfather.
"He has been torn away from us far too soon and we have been left devastated.”
Police are continuing to appeal for any further information about what happened. They are especially interested in any dashcam footage from drivers who might have been in the area.
If you were in or around Compton Road at 8pm on September 11, get in touch with West Midlands Police on 101 or via Live Chat quoting log 5102 of 11 September.
