Dad-of-four, 35, ‘stabbed to death’ in front of horrified parents on Father’s Day after being ‘targeted by gang’
A DAD-of-four was stabbed to death in front of his horrified parents on Father's Day after he was allegedly targeted by a gang, terrified locals say.
The 35-year-old, named locally as Beau Robinson, was reportedly killed after a fight in Burnham, Bucks, last Sunday.
Beau collapsed in front of his parents' home and was declared dead at the scene shortly after.
Locals say the dad-of-four had only recently moved back in with his mum and dad.
Speaking the day after Beau's death, one neighbour said: "I was having Father's Day lunch out the back of my house when I heard something unusual.
"I think he was stabbed. I came out of my house and I saw Beau's father in a chair and a critical care ambulance car was just across our driveway.
"I have been told that five people came over to beat Beau up and then ran away through the alleyway to Oxford Avenue.
"The police forensic people were in the alleyway last night, looking down the drains and trying to find something."

Another neighbour added: "It was quite a shock to us when we saw all the police arrive on the road yesterday afternoon.
"Nothing like this has happened here before, it is a really nice and friendly area and a quiet street. We have certainly never seen anything like it."
Police say they were called to the scene at around 1.10pm following reports of an "altercation".
Two men have now been charged with murder after the tragedy.
Martin Fleming, 20 and of of Bideford Spur, Slough, appeared before magistrates today, while 30-year-old Daniel Hicks - who is also charged with having a knife in a public place - will be in the dock at Reading Crown Court on Tuesday.
