A third man has been charged in connection with the murder of 31-year-old Josh Barr of Cambridge. His family described Josh as “caring, strong and a fighter. Everyone that met him said he had such a kind soul.

“He was a loving son and was dearly loved by us all. He was a ray of sunshine.”

On March 10 police were called shortly after 5am to reports of a stabbing in Carlton Way, Cambridge.

Josh, of Victoria Road, was found in Ferrars Way with stab wounds and despite best efforts of paramedics, was pronounced dead at the scene.
