Boy, 15, guilty of knife killing outside school

A 15-YEAR-OLD boy who stabbed another teenager through the heart on the way home from school has been found guilty of murder.

Alfie Lewis, 15, was knifed to death "in full view" of pupils leaving a primary school in the Horsforth area of Leeds last November.

A schoolboy, who was 14 at the time, admitted stabbing Alfie with a five-inch long kitchen knife he had brought from home but denied murder, claiming he was scared for his life when he pulled out the weapon.

A jury at Leeds Crown Court convicted him of the offence yesterday.

Sobs were heard from Alfie's family in the public gallery as the verdict was announced, as his loved ones hugged each other.
