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."
