Schoolboy, 15, held over Harry stabbing death

A BOY aged 15 has been arrested on suspicion of murdering 16-year-old Harry Pitman on New Year's Eve.

Harry was stabbed to death at 11.40pm on Sunday while waiting with friends to watch a fireworks display.

The 15-year-old was arrested on Tuesday along with an 18-year-old man suspected of affray and they remain in custody, police said.

It came as Harry's devastated family yesterday insisted he was an "innocent hero".

Sister Tayla, 19, decided to "set the record straight" after false rumours on social media that he was involved with gangs. Harry's grandad Philip Woolveridge, 59, reiterated her message to the Mirror.
