Fresh tributes a week after schoolboy's death

Monday 13 July 2015


Fresh tributes have been left at the site of the tragic death of 16-year-old Morgan Huelin, a week after he died.

Flowers and cards were left at the scene on a quiet road in Trinity where he was found collapsed just before 10 am last Sunday. Paramedics tried to save Morgan's life after being called by a woman who discovered Morgan while out walking her dog.

He was taken to hospital but doctors were unable to save him.

Five teenagers were later arrested on suspicion of murder and questioned by Police as part of an investigation codenamed "Operation Emerald", which involved 24 officers working full time.

At least three of those teenagers - four of whom were 16, and one of whom was 15 - were students at Victoria College, like Morgan. All five have now been released on bail. 

A few days later a Home Office Pathologist conducted a post mortem examination, but no details on what was found have so far been released.

The spot where Morgan's body was found is now marked with floral tributes from friends.

Morgan, who lived in St Lawrence, was described two days after his death by Victoria College head teacher Alun Watkins as “a genuinely honest and good natured young man”, whose death had left the school community “incredibly stunned."
