A 14-year-old boy killed in a sword attack in north-east London has been pictured for the first time.
Daniel Anjorin, 14, was killed in a sword attack as he walked to Bancroft’s School in Woodford Green on Tuesday.
Daniel was described as a “true scholar” who had a “positive nature and gentle character” in a statement from the independent school.
The private school was also attended by Nottingham stabbing victim Grace O’Malley-Kumar. The flag of the school is today flying at half-mast.
A message sent to parents at Holy Family Catholic School, where one of Daniel’s parents’ teaches, said: “It is with great sadness that I share with you the news of the death of the child of one of our staff members.
“Mrs Anjorin’s son was taken from this life suddenly this morning on his way to school.
“Please keep Mrs Anjorin, her husband and their other children in your prayers. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen.”
