She added: “I will make him proud and I know he will be watching over me, my brothers, Reece and Jack, and my little sister Emma.”

Bradley’s youngest sister Melanie also hailed the murder victim, saying: “Bradley was a tough character who led a difficult life at times. For it to be cut short so tragically is truly heart-breaking.

“At least he can now rest at ease with our mother. May he rest in peace.”

Moore was stabbed to death on Wednesday night following an altercation outside the fast food restaurant in Ashton-under-Lyne, Gtr Manchester.

Four teenagers appeared in court yesterday charged with murder.

One of those charged - a boy of 12 blew a kiss to his sobbing mum as he appeared in court.

If convicted, the schoolboy will become the UK’s youngest murderer of an adult.

At a short pre-trial hearing at Manchester Crown Court the boy’s weeping mum ran up to the partition separating them - banging on the glass panel and shouting: “I love you”.

The families of his co-defendants - two aged 16 and one 17 - were also in tears.

All were remanded in custody to face trial in January.

Detective Inspector John Mulvihill from GMP’s Major Incident Team said: “This is a tragic case and four young people have been charged in connection with Bradley’s murder.

“Our investigation remains ongoing and I am continuing to appeal for witnesses that were in or around the McDonald’s on Warrington Street at around 10.30 pm on Wednesday 27 July to come forward.

“I would also like to appeal to the driver of a Vauxhall Corsa to come forward, who visited McDonalds at this time and parked his vehicle on Warrington Street, near to the restaurant. I believe he may have information that will assist this investigation.”
