A teenager who was stabbed to death following a fight in south-east London has been named as Ben Hitchcock.
Officers found him with serious injuries after the attack in Southend Road, Beckenham, shortly before midnight on Saturday.

The stabbing was not racially motivated and was the result of a fight that broke out when a group tried to gatecrash a party, police said.

Fourteen teenagers, including a girl, were arrested over the incident.

The teenagers, aged between 13 to 16 years, have since been bailed to return on Wednesday.

This boy actually went to my school, and a lot of people were upset. He had JUST finished his GCSE's as well.

OMG! I had heard about this on the news and from my parents, but I had no idea it was your area... and as if the boy went to your school! That's so sad - RIP.

Youngsters these days, seriously - and in some parts, especially big cities, things don't seem to be getting any safer.

Really? I didn't think it would get out of London.

Yeah he did. It's weird cause you don't imagine people from your school getting killed. There were actually 3/4 deaths this weekend in London.

I know, it's what youth are like these days, well in London anyway.
