Default Heading H1
A man has been jailed for 10 years after beating a 60-year-old man to death during a violent argument at a home in Charlton.
Radoslaw Brzezicki, 42, of Erwood Road, Charlton, was sentenced on Wednesday 23 July at Isleworth Crown Court, having been convicted of manslaughter last month over the death of Robert Dlugosz.
Court Hears of Brutal Home Attack
Emergency services were called after the female victim fled the address and alerted a passerby. When officers arrived at the Erwood Road property, they found Robert alive but seriously injured.

An officer at the scene used a translation app to communicate with Robert, a Polish speaker, and obtained a crucial account identifying Brzezicki as the attacker. Robert collapsed shortly after giving the statement.
He was rushed to hospital for emergency surgery but sadly died three days later, on 25 November 2023. A post-mortem confirmed the cause of death as a traumatic brain injury.
