Temidayo Ogunneye, a 15-year old boy, was stabbed to death after confronting thieves for the return of his BlackBerry, according to a court hearing yesterday.
Temidayo and a friend were robbed on May 11, 2011 in Camberwell, south-east London. Later that day, he went back to confront the people who stole his BB, and a fight started. The reports say that Temidayo was actually winning the fight at first, but then weapons were pulled out. Temidayo then ran, but tripped and that's when he was stabbed. Had he not gone back to get his BlackBerry he would almost certainly still be alive. What a high price to pay for a gadget.
