Babynko, of Commonwealth Way, London, has also been charged with attempted murder related to an incident on Hady Lane, Chesterfield, on the previous Thursday. He is scheduled to appear at Southern Derbyshire Magistrates' Court later.

A 41-year-old man, initially arrested on suspicion of murder following Clare-Watts's death, was released on bail last week.

Authorities have established a major incident public portal to allow members of the public to provide information to officers.
