Officers from West Yorkshire Police’s Homicide and Major Enquiry Team (HMET) launched a murder investigation after Jamie Meah, aged 18, died in hospital after being fatally stabbed in an attack in Armley on Friday, 31 March.
Aquade Jeffers, Caleb Awe, Enham Nishat, all aged 20, and Ranei Wilks, aged 21, are all from Leeds and are wanted for murder in connection with the incident which took place at the junction of Hall Lane and Brentwood Terrace.
Enquiries remain ongoing into the murder with officers appealing for anyone with information to come forward.
The men are believed to have links to Leeds, Merseyside and the Greater Manchester areas.
Senior Investigating Officer Det Chf Insp Damian Roebuck said: “Jamie’s death was a tragedy in which a young man with his life ahead of him was needlessly cut short.

“I would urge anyone who thinks they may have seen any of these four males, or knows of their whereabouts to please contact us with those details.”
