The small shrine left to Logan Mwangi as huge bank of tributes is cleared away

A small shrine to murdered five-year-old Logan Mwangi has been left after most of the tributes left in outpouring of anger and sadness at the boy's death were cleared. Some of the tributes had become "weathered", said a housing association.

Five-year-old Logan was found dead on July 31 last year in the River Ogmore in Sarn, Bridgend. His mother Angharad Williamson, 31, of Lower Llansantffraid, and stepfather John Cole, 40, of Maesglas in Ynysawdre, and stepbrother Craig Mulligan, 14, also of Maesglas, were found guilty of his murder and jailed for a combined 72 years.

Countless teddy bears were left next to the river at Lower Llansantffraid in memory of the child who was often seen carrying one to school. The toys were surrounded by candle jars and flower bouquets alongside messages to mark dates that Logan never got to see, such as his sixth birthday.
