A tragic incident in Woolwich sees a young boy fatally stabbed as two youths flee the scene with a machete, prompting a police manhunt.
Woolwich: A heartbreaking scene unfolded when a 14-year-old boy was fatally stabbed on a bus. Witnesses reported seeing two young men running away, one of them wielding a machete. It’s just shocking.
Vince, a local estate agent, caught the whole thing on CCTV. He described the boys as looking really young, probably not even 18. One of them had a machete that was huge, about the size of his forearm. Can you imagine?
Kelyan Bokassa, the victim, was on his way to meet his social worker when this tragedy struck. His mom shared how caring he was and how he had a tough time living on the streets, getting involved with gangs and drugs. It’s just so sad.
Mary, Kelyan’s mom, said he was polite and loved football, especially Arsenal. She fought hard to keep in touch with him after he went missing for a year. When he finally came back home, he was in bad shape. It’s heartbreaking to think about what he went through.
After the stabbing, Kelyan sadly died at the scene. Friends have been sharing tributes online, remembering him as a good friend and a passionate footballer. They’re all saying he was taken too soon.
The police are on the hunt for the suspects, and they’re asking anyone with information or footage to come forward. It’s a tough time for the community, and they’re increasing police presence to keep everyone safe.
It’s just a tragic situation all around, and my heart goes out to Kelyan’s family. They’re getting support from the police, but nothing can really ease that pain.
