Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Andrew Tate and Sneako blamed after 17-year-old boy stabbed 15-year-old to death with a sword after saying no to his flowers.
A third said: “The knife was like a sword. The boy tried to give the girl flowers, but she didn’t want to know. Then he stabbed her.
“A police officer tried to stem the wound but there was a lot of blood.”
In a statement, an Old Palace of John Whitgift spokesman said: “We are deeply shocked by the senseless and tragic death of our much-loved and valued friend and pupil.
“It will take some time for the Old Palace community to come to terms with this terrible news, and we will offer support to our pupils as we try to do so.
Police said the youngster, a pupil at Old Palace of John Whitgift independent girls’ school, was killed during Wednesday morning rush hour.
A 17-year-old boy, who officers said knew the girl, has been arrested.
Police rushed to the scene after receiving reports of a girl being knifed on Wellesley Road near the Whitgift shopping centre around 8.30am. Speaking to reporters on Wednesday afternoon the Met Police’s Ch Supt Andy Brittain said this was “every parent’s worst nightmare”.
“I know the officers who responded this morning, along with our emergency service colleagues, are devastated at the victim’s death.”
He said officers were on the scene within two minutes of the call being received and provided emergency first aid.
“Within 75 minutes a 17-year-old boy was arrested in New Addington, and remains in custody”, he added.
The force confirmed it was not looking for anyone else in connection to the offence. A white forensic tent has since been erected within a police cordon outside the Whitgift Centre and a bunch of flowers can be seen placed next to the tent.
The cordon also surrounds a red double decker number 60 bus, and about a dozen police officers and several emergency vehicles remain in the area.
One eyewitness described seeing a bus driver and a woman trying to resuscitate the girl on the pavement.
The woman who only wanted to be known as Bridget, said: “I was on the bus before and came off and walked back down, I saw them resuscitating her.
“The driver was holding her and a lady. The emergency services were already here when I walked back.”
An eyewitness described how the victim and a boy had been on a bus together. She said an argument between the pair, both in school uniform, led to the fatal stabbing.
She told the Standard: “They both got off the bus, she said something, then he pulled out a long knife with a jagged edge. It was like a machete or something.
“She was stabbed in the throat. I had to look away.”
Another local added: “There were people with kids on the bus. Everyone was running in a panic.”
