Today Tuesday, Nov. 24, Evan Edwards, 20
(right), was jailed for 13 years at the Old
Bailey after admitting to the manslaughter
of 22-year-old Babafemi Junaid (Left),
Metropolitan Police UK states.
Babatunde was stabbed on February 7,
2014 and later died in hospital. A post-
mortem examination gave the cause of
death as a single stab wound to the heart.
Babafemi became the inadvertent focus of
an attack by a group after a disturbance on
a 155 bus spilled out onto the street.
He was not on the bus but was waiting at
the bus stop when the disturbance spilled
out onto the pavement at Stockwell station.
As he attempted to get away from the
fracas when he was targeted, chased and
attacked by the group.
During the attack one of the attackers was
witnessed waving a knife, when Babafemi
fell to the ground. He managed to run to
his car which was a short distance away
but, as a result of his injuries, crashed his
car into the back of a bus soon after.
The same group that initially attacked him
then set upon him again opening three of
its doors to kick and punch him until
bystanders came over to intervene.
