White teen killed by black gang in London

A white teenage boy was chased through a playground by a mob of black youths wielding knives and baseball bats before being stabbed to death in London’s latest outbreak of gang violence. Nick Pearton, 16, who was cradled by his mother as he lay bleeding from multiple knife wounds, became the tenth teenager to be murdered in the capital in 2010. The white teen was attacked in Home Park, Sydenham, after apparently being lured to the recreation ground by a phone call and then ambushed. People nearby, who called police to report a disturbance in the park, said that they saw the boy, who is white, running away from a group of black youths armed with knives and baseball bats. He staggered to a nearby fried chicken shop where he collapsed on the floor. His mother, Kim, ran to the scene and neighbors spoke of hearing her cries as paramedics tried to save his life.
