Police check stab suspects
By Justin Davenport, Evening Standard
25 June 2004
Detectives investigating the murder of 15-year-old Kieran Rodney-Davis, stabbed to death for his mobile phone, are checking a list of names of suspects.
Local people have given police several possible names. Kieran, who was on a shopping errand for his mother, was stabbed once in the chest when he was confronted in Fulham by three black youths.
The youths, all aged about 15 and wearing red balaclavas or bandanastyle scarves over their faces, were seen running away after the attack at about 2.45pm on Wednesday.
Police have been searching nearby South Park for a murder weapon.
Detective Chief Inspector Dave Little, heading the investigation, said "We are getting a lot of information. We have a number of names but still need further help. We are fairly certain that this started out as a robbery and ended up as the pointless murder of an innocent youngster. From what we know Kieran was stopped and searched, then stabbed even though he offered no resistance."

Yes that was two days ago. It is a seriously sorry time when children are being murdered by other youngsters for items they have earned.

The same thing occured here in Dublin back in October 02, when Alan Higgins was stabbed to death for his mobile phone by a gang. It's unbelievable that such things happen, terrible.

It says on news.bbc.co.uk that "Three youths arrested in connection with murder of 15-year-old boy. More soon" but doesn't let me follow the link.
It's probably talking about this.
