Tributes have been paid to Koy Bentley after he was named by police as the victim of the fatal stabbing in Watford last week.
Floral tributes have been left at the scene of the incident in Water Lane, paying tribute to the “big hearted” 15-year-old who was from the town.
Candles have also been placed outside of the block of flats where Koy was fatally stabbed last Monday.
Koy was stabbed in Rainbow House, Water Lane, Watford
Koy was a former pupil at Queens School in Bushey.
Jasmine Restrepo, 16, said: “I did not know him very well, I’d only chilled with him a couple of times, but he was funny, he was a nice guy.”
A 15-year-old from Willesden, who cannot be named for legal reasons, has since been charged with murder.
And a second person – a 24-year-old man from Greenwich – who was arrested on suspicion of murder, has been bailed until July 4.
