A 16-year-old boy has died after being stabbed in Bristol by two people who escaped on bicycles.
Avon and Somerset Police said it happened in the St Philips area on Wednesday evening and that the attackers wore masks.
Police said after being attacked in Rawnsley Park, the teenager ran to Stapleton Road – where a driver helped him – before he collapsed on West Street.
Ambulances were called but he died at the scene.
Bristol Commander Supt Mark Runacres said: “Tragically, we have lost another young life from our city in utterly horrific circumstances.
“Our thoughts are with the victim’s family at what will be an unimaginably difficult time and officers will continue to support them.
“We are committed to bringing those responsible to justice and we will be working tirelessly to that end.”
