Teenager Stabbed to Death in Shocking Wolverhampton Attack

Detectives are hunting for witnesses after a 15-year-old boy was fatally stabbed in Wolverhampton last Friday. The tragic attack happened near a canal bridge on Reapers Walk, Pendeford.

What Happened?

  • The ambulance service alerted police just before 4:15pm about a seriously injured child.

Police Launch Urgent Appeal for Witnesses and Video Evidence
