Tributes have been paid to a 15-year-old boy who died after a stabbing near a school in Leeds.

The teenager, named locally as Alfie Lewis, was attacked in the Horsforth area of the city on Tuesday afternoon as children were leaving two nearby schools. On Wednesday morning, people began bringing flowers to the scene at the junction of Church Road and Church Lane, which remained cordoned off. West Yorkshire Police said officers were called just before 3pm on Tuesday to reports of an assault and witnesses said an air ambulance landed nearby.

In a message to parents, he said: “You will be aware of a distressing incident in the community today, involving a former student of Horsforth School who was stabbed on St Margaret’s Avenue. “The police are aware and working with the school.” Dr Bell said: “We are aware of the distress and upset this has caused students and staff who know the student. “We will be supporting students and staff in school and will update you as soon as we are able. “We have limited information at this time.
