A 15-year-old has been charged with murder after a boy was stabbed to death on a bus on his 16th birthday.
Police were called just after 3pm on Tuesday after Derek Boateng, from Hackney, was stabbed on the route 393 bus.
The bus had stopped at Highbury New Park, and the boy was treated at the scene by the ambulance service.
He was taken by air ambulance to an east London hospital, where he died late on Wednesday.
The Metropolitan Police said the 15-year-old boy accused of murder, from Havering, is due to appear at Highbury Corner Youth Court on Friday.
Police have appealed for witnesses or anyone with information to contact a newly set-up incident room on 020 8345 3734 or contact Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
The boy who died was reported to have been a former pupil at Highbury Grove school.
His older sister Gifty, 29, told the Evening Standard: "I could not have had a better brother. He would do things for anyone and ask for nothing in return.
"He was the family handyman and could fix anything."
Residents and parents spoke of their shock at the attack which happened outside the school.
Novelist Mark Cairns, whose son is at the school, told the London Evening Standard: "I heard a lot of noise and shouting. I went to make sure my son was okay.
"The medics were on the bus trying to save this kid's life, pumping his chest. He was bleeding quite badly and I think he was unconscious.
"They carried him off the bus and started treating him on the pavement. It was right outside my house."
Durdane Uckac, 47, whose son is also a pupil at the school, said: "There have been incidents around here but the school itself has been getting better and better. There are gangs who target each other and what has happened is so tragic."
