A TERRIFIED neighbour told a dying schoolboy “don’t worry, mum will be coming soon”, after tying a makeshift tourniquet in an attempt to stop the bleeding. The teenager lay in a “pool of blood” after being brutally stabbed with a zombie knife, and begged “I’m 15, don’t let me die”, a witness has revealed.

A 43-year-old woman told the PA news agency how she tried to help the wounded teen in the road outside her flat in Eglinton Road. Despite her efforts, the boy died a short time later.
