[A 16-year-old boy arrested on suspicion of murdering
Harry Pitman on New Year's Eve has been
released on bail, the Metropolitan Police have said.
Harry, who was also 16, was attacked as he waited
to watch the fireworks near the Primrose Hill
viewing platform, in north London,
at about 11.40pm on Sunday.
Police said he was with a group of friends
celebrating the New Year when he is believed
to have become involved in an altercation
"with devastating consequences".
Officers called to the scene minutes after
the attack gave first aid to the victim before
ambulance crews arrived.
He was pronounced dead shortly
before midnight.
A 16-year-old boy who was arrested at the
scene on suspicion of murder has been released on
bail pending further enquiries, the Met said.
Speaking on Monday evening, Harry's older
sister Tayla, 19, told MailOnline her
"mischievous and cheeky" brother
"didn't have a bad bone in his body" and
"always stood up for what was right".
"I'm devastated, he was my baby brother,"
she said. "He didn't even get to see
the fireworks, which is why he went to
Primrose Hill in the first place."]
