He knifed as he walked home from a pub in Aldridge High Street at around 11.45pm on Friday June 23.

The CCTV has been released in a bid to attempt to identify whoever attacked James.

He had been out with friends when he decided to go home, walking along a path at the most northern point of Croft Park.

Four young men who had just attended a school prom attempted to give James first aid and one managed to get in touch with his girlfriend using his phone.

She then called James' parents who rushed to the scene. Ambulance workers spent one hour trying to save James, but he died in his parents arms on Aldridge High Street.

A £10,000 reward is being offered to anyone who can provide information regarding the whereabouts and capture of James' killers.
