15-year-old boy stabbed to death in Lawless London

On the night of carnage in Lawless London, a boy was stabbed to death. The boy has been named as 15-year-old Baptista Adjei.

The 15-year-old Baptista Adjei was fatally knifed in his school uniform outside McDonald’s, in Stratford Broadway, at 3.20pm on Thursday. Paramedics tried to keep the teenager alive, but he was pronounced dead at the scene at 3.49pm. His 15-year-old school friend was also rushed to hospital with stab wounds, where he remains with non-life-threatening injuries. The police believe both were either attacked while on the bus or shortly after he got off.

The boy was described as an affectionate boy who ‘would always make you laugh’. ‘He was a fun-loving boy, very popular with everyone in church, everyone in the street knew him. He would come and put his arms around you. He would always make you laugh. ‘No one could say a bad word about him, he would never join a gang or a group. That’s not him.’

A Section 60 order was implemented, giving officers increased stop and search powers across Newham. Police have closed off a large part of Broadway, and the shopping centre entrance nearest Stratford Station has also been closed. No arrests have been made so far.
