A student who was left fighting for his life after being stabbed outside a sixth form college has died.

Emergency services were called to Joseph Chamberlain College just after 4pm where they found the youngster.

Paramedics also treated a 19-year-old man for minor cuts to his back and hand and an 18-year-old was treat for a minor wound to his hand.

Witnesses at the college said the first year student fell to the ground and screamed “stay with me, stay with me” as onlookers rushed to help.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
