\u201cI\u2019m so broken-hearted, I can\u2019t believe it. He was the most beautiful, lovely, outgoing, loving boy. He was just a really lovely person.<\/p>\n
\u201cHis friend was stabbed in the back and hands trying to protect him. My son always tried to stand up for people, so maybe the attacker was bullying someone.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sullivan said his son had been a keen film-maker, working on music videos for British drill and rap musicians under the name Sully Shot It.<\/p>\n
He had gone to the famous viewing spot to use a new camera he\u2019d bought for his 21st birthday.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s Primrose Hill, for god\u2019s sake … it\u2019s like Hyde Park. It\u2019s not somewhere you expect this,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is the worst tragedy I could ever imagine. He\u2019s my only son … I had him when I was 45. He can never be replaced.\u201d<\/p>\n
Footage of the attack has quickly spread on social media and shows the brawl escalating as a man wields a knife in front of onlookers, many of whom had gathered in the popular park to enjoy the United Kingdom\u2019s warmest day of the year so far.<\/p>\n
One witness told the Daily Mail that several groups of people in their late teens had been involved in the fight.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe park was just so busy, I had gone with my mate after work and it was literally the busiest I have ever seen it because of the weather and it being Easter holidays.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThen suddenly we heard this commotion from behind us, and a big brawl kicked off – people were throwing punches, people were screaming at others to stop.\u201d<\/p>\n
Police are continuing to investigate the incident and have asked anyone with information, including photos and videos, to come forward.<\/p>\n
It follows a spate of fatal violence in the major city over the last few days.<\/p>\n
A man in his twenties was stabbed to death outside a Peckham nightclub on Monday, and another died in a double attack in Shadwell on Tuesday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cI\u2019m so broken-hearted, I can\u2019t believe it.
