A 14-year-old schoolboy who was stabbed to death in broad daylight in London yesterday has been named as Kelyan Bokassa.
Bokassa died shortly after the knife attack on a 472 double-decker bus on Church Street in Woolwich, southeast London, on Tuesday.
Speaking to the BBC, his mother Mary Bokassa said he was "kind", loved music, was talented at drawing, and cared about the people around him.
Mary added that Kelyan was articulate and loved football.
Police, paramedics and the London Air Ambulance had descended on the scene just after 2.30pm yesterday after a police officer on patrol raised the alarm.
Though medics tried to treat the 14-year-old's injuries, he died soon afterwards.
Police said they were working "at pace" to find his killers - but no arrests have yet been made.
