A 15-year-old boy who was stabbed to death in Islington, north London, on Tuesday has been named as Adam John Henry.
In a statement issued by the Metropolitan Police, Adam’s family said: “We will never recover from the loss and not having him in our lives.”
They added: “We ask for privacy as a family so we can grieve and try to process this senseless tragedy together.”
The Met said detectives and forensic specialists “are working at pace to establish the events which led to Adam’s murder” and asked for any witnesses or anyone with information about the stabbing to contact them as soon as possible.
