Thai prosecutors have indicted a British kickboxer on murder charges in connection with the 2010 stabbing of a former US Marine on a resort island. A Phuket court indicted Lee Aldhouse on Wednesday. He is accused of stabbing to death ex-Marine Dashawn Longfellow after being beaten by the American during a brawl at a Phuket bar. He had been living on-and-off in Phuket, where Longfellow was also studying the sport. Aldhouse was extradited to Thailand earlier this month in the first case of extradition of a criminal suspect from England to Thailand.—AP
