"He was loving, mischievous, adventurous and, as such, extremely popular. He was everything a 15 year old child should be and his life was senselessly taken from him before he had the chance to grow into it."Evie Pullan wrote: "You always knew how to turn a bad situation into something funny no matter what you never failed to make us laugh. It doesn’t feel real that you’re not here anymore but no matter what you’ll always be with us in our hearts.
“A tragedy like this is a huge shock to our school and local community, and we understand that people will be deeply affected by this rare incident,. However, we know the community will rally together to support each other during this very sad and difficult time.”
