| It has been confirmed that the 18 year old French student stabbed to death outside a discotheque in Valladolid during the early hours of this morning was in Spain taking part in a school exchange programme.
The lad had been on a night out with other students from a high school in Laguna de Duero when the incident occurred at around 0.45am outside the Sala Mumbo on the calle San Felipe Neri (photo).
He was rushed to the University Clinical Hospital where he died around three hours after undergoing surgery.
Initial reports indicate that the victim and around ten other French youths had been involved in an argument with a second group of youths inside the disco shortly before, which spilled out onto the pavement outside.
The boy's parents are travelling to Spain to organise the repatriation of their son's body. |
