POLICE have been questioning members of the public near the site of an Oxford murder as the hunt for a killer continues.

Officers were camped along the towpath in Grandpont Nature Park on Wednesday asking passersby if they saw anything unusual before 16-year-old Harun Jama was fatally stabbed on January 3.

On Monday a murder charge was dropped against 33-year-old Oxford man Craig Ford.

Charges of robbery and possessing a bladed article against Mr Ford, of Luther Street, were also discountinued but he remains charged with two counts of possession with intent to supply Class A drugs.

Earlier this week new posters appeared in Friar's Wharf where the killing took place.

Police urged anyone on the towpath that evening to call 101.
