Praise for attempts to save stabbed teen as life ebbed away

Nothing different could have been done to save the life of a teenager stabbed in Stapleford, an inquest has found.

Assistant coroner Elizabeth Didcock said that a decision to perform an operation on Joseph Whitchurch in an ambulance whilst on the way to hospital did not have any bearing on the outcome. She described the first response to the incident as "exemplary".

Joseph was 16-years-old when he was stabbed four times in the kitchen of an address at Hickings Lane in Stapleford on the morning of Boxing Day 2020.
