'This world is going mad' Stabbing victim says knife crime among young people is 'getting worse'
Ibby Djilla was heading home from football training with his friends when he was stabbed in the back in November 2017.
"All I felt was a hot thing running down my back and leg. I never thought anything like that would happen to me in my life"
Ibby spent six days in hospital and took three months to recover.
His attacker was never identified.
Ibby told ITV News the issue of knife crime among young people is "getting worse" but thinks an increase in stop and search powers may help tackle the crisis.
