Heartbroken mum reveals teen son's final words to her before he was stabbed to death

A heartbroken mum who's 17-year-old son was fatally stabbed recalls the final conversation she had with him before he left the house for a few drinks with his pals and never returned home. Tracy Marsland's eyes filled with tears as she revealed her 'beautiful' son's final words to her were 'see you, mum, I love you' as she cried, 'I never saw him again'.

Just hours later, Callum Riley was found badly injured and 'screaming for help' in the garden of a house in Atholl Drive, Heywood in the early hours of September 17 last year. The teen sadly died a short while later from his injuries and detectives launched a murder investigation, the Manchester Evening News reports.

Three people have been arrested on suspicion of his murder but not charged and five months on from Callum's death, the killer has still not been brought to justice. On the day before his body was found, groundworker Callum finished his work early and met up with his girlfriend.
