Senior Investigating Officer, Det Chief Insp Damian Roebuck, said: “Jamie’s death was a tragedy in which a young man with his life ahead of him was needlessly cut short.

“We would like to speak to these four males who are wanted for his murder.

"These men are believed to have links to the Leeds, Liverpool and Greater Manchester areas and enquiries are actively being carried out in those areas.”

“I would urge anyone who thinks they may have seen any of these four males, or knows of their whereabouts to please contact us with those details.”

Jamie was travelling with the teen boy in a taxi when they were stopped by a group in another vehicle.

He was rushed to hospital with stab wounds but sadly couldn't be saved.

The public are being urged not to approach the group but instead call 999 quoting reference 13230180255.
