A teenager has been charged with murder after a 15-year-old boy was fatally stabbed near a school in Leeds.

Alfie Lewis was stabbed close to St Margaret's Primary School in Horsforth just before 15:00 GMT on Tuesday.

The former Horsforth School student later died in hospital, West Yorkshire Police said.

The force said the charged 14-year-old boy was due before Leeds Magistrates' Court later. He has also been charged with possession of a knife.

In a statement, Alfie's family said he was "one in a million" and "you will always be with us forever".

They added: "Nothing will ever be the same without you.

"You will shine in the sky, as bright as you did in all our lives."

Flowers at the scene of the fatal stabbing

A 16-year-old boy who was also arrested on suspicion of murder on Tuesday evening has been released without charge.

Tributes were left at the scene on Wednesday morning and a bench on Broadgate Lane, about half a mile from where Alfie was stabbed, was adorned with flowers and tealights spelling out his name.
