Schoolboy’s death marks new low in knife crime crisis

THE death of a 14-year-old boy almost three weeks after he was stabbed has marked a new low in Britain’s knife crime crisis.

Detectives launched yet another murder inquiry after David Idowu lost his 20-day fight for life at an east London hospital.

The boy, attacked after a row spilled from a football pitch onto a nearby street, became the 19th teenager to be stabbed to death in the capital this year.
