By Tom AireyBBC News
A teenager has been charged with murder after a 15-year-old boy was fatally stabbed near a school in Leeds.
Alfie Lewis was stabbed close to St Margaret's Primary School in Horsforth just before 15:00 GMT on Tuesday.
The former Horsforth School Student later died in hospital, West Yorkshire Police said.
The Force said the charged 14-year-old boy was due before Leeds Magistrates' Court later. He has also been charged with possession of a knife.
In a statement, Alfie's family said he was " one in a million" and " you will always be With Us forever".
They added: " Nothing will ever be the same without you.
" You will shine in the sky, as bright as you did in all our lives. "
A 16-year-old boy who was also arrested on suspicion of murder on Tuesday evening has been released without charge.
Tributes were left at The Scene on Wednesday morning and a bench on Broadgate Lane, about half a mile from where Alfie was stabbed, was adorned with flowers and tealights spelling out his name.
