- Published
Two teenagers previously arrested on suspicion of murder have now been charged with robbery over the death of an 82-year-old woman.
Officers found Joy Middleditch in a serious condition at her home in Grayson Avenue in Pakefield, Suffolk, on 25 March last year.
The 82-year-old died in hospital two days later.
The pair, aged 16 and 15, were charged last week with robbery and burglary with intent to steal.
The boys, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were due to appear at Norwich Magistrates' Court on 10 June, Suffolk Police said.
Ms Middleditch's family previously paid tribute to her describing her as a "determined character who loved life and her dog".
"She was a loving person who was sadly taken from us too soon," they said.
