Hunt for 'gentle giant's' killer

A teenager murdered the day after his 16th birthday was killed in an unprovoked attack after he refused to take part in a fight, police said.

A manhunt is under way to track the killer responsible for cutting "gentle giant" Jimmy Mizen's neck with glass following a row as he went to buy a Lottery ticket with his brother.

Jimmy was near his home in the Three Cooks bakery in Lee, south east London, when a youth challenged him to a fight. After devout Catholic Jimmy declined to fight, the attacker smashed down the bakery door and picked up an advertising board which he wielded inside.
