His family have paid tribute to their 'cheeky' and 'loving' son and brother, from Milford in Surrey, adding their lives have been destroyed after the 'tragic and unnecessary' loss. Their statement read: 'Despite courageously battling right 'til the very end of his young and innocent life, his injuries were too severe and he tragically passed away on the evening of Tuesday 25 July. 'He was the most caring, cheeky, loving son and brother we could have ever wished for, and we cannot imagine a life without him.' They added: 'His ridiculously silly sense of humour will be deeply missed by everyone that knew and loved him.'
