A 45-year-old man will appear in court charged with the robbery of a 101-year-old man.

Stephen Gillespie, of no fixed abode, has been charged after Polish war veteran Kazimierz Michalski was robbed by a man posing as a builder at his north Oxford home on Sunday, March 8.

Gillespie was remanded in custody last night to appear at Oxford Magistrates’ Court this morning.
