Hundreds of people attend gathering to honour Perth teenager Cassius Turvey

Members of Perth's young Indigenous community have come together to honour schoolboy Cassius Turvey and share their grief and concerns in the wake of his death.

Cassius, 15, died on Sunday, 10 days after he was allegedly bashed while walking home from school with a group of friends in Middle Swan, in Perth's north-east.

His death has sparked outpourings of grief and has seen Indigenous elders voicing fears that racism played a part in the attack.
