as Paul said, it only takes an innocent shove, and an awkward fall to cause a death. The other boy must be feeling absolutley terrified & his parents must also feel like hell too. My neighbours cousin died this summer after falling down the stairs. A simple case of losing her footing, falling & knocking her head. Poor girl diddnt ever wake up. She was 20.

How sad - and getting more commonplace by the day. Does anyone wonder, like I do, what is causing all this aggression. Do you think it could possibly be something to do with diet? i.e. E numbers and things? Chrissie

No more details yet. Just looked on the news sites. It does appear taht there was no weapon involved though. Seems like two kids having a scrap, probably a freak accident that caused the boys death. Terrible shame for all involved.

I feel so sorry for his parents and I feel sorry for the parents of the lad that caused it too. June
