London: A heartbreaking incident unfolded when a 14-year-old boy was stabbed 27 times on a bus. Kelyan Bokassa was just trying to get home from school.

This tragic event happened on a route 472 bus in Woolwich. A 16-year-old boy, who can’t be named, has been charged with murder. It’s just so shocking.

The court heard that Kelyan suffered severe injuries, including a severed femoral artery. The accused appeared in court wearing a grey sweatshirt, confirming his identity.

He’s now in custody at a youth detention center and is set to appear at the Old Bailey soon. Another boy, aged 15, is also facing charges related to Kelyan’s death.

Kelyan was an aspiring rapper and loved football. His mom, Mary, described him as kind and caring, and she’s devastated by the loss. “I can’t believe he is gone,” she said.

A vigil was held for Kelyan, where friends shared how he had a “pure heart” and was always there for them. It’s just so sad to see such a young life taken away.

This is a developing story, and we’ll keep you updated as more information comes in.
