Schoolboy stabbed to death.with zombie knife named

A schoolboy who was stabbed to death in southeast London has been named as two men have been arrested on suspicion of murder.

Daejuan Campbell, 15, died on Sunday evening in an attack police believe involved a zombie-style knife just before a ban against the deadly weapons came into force. The 15-year-old was found with a fatal stab injury on Eglinton Road in Woolwich at around 6.30pm amid reports of a disturbance.

The Metropolitan Police subsequently launched a murder investigation. It was confirmed yesterday that a 52-year-old man and an 18-year-old man have been arrested on suspicion of murder and both remain in police custody.
