Two teenage thugs were jailed today for chasing a music student until he fell to his death under a bus.
Ezekiel Amosu, 17, fled when a gang of youths threatened him with sticks and rocks in Walthamstow in January last year.
After one youth stuck a foot out, the A-level student fell into the path of an oncoming bus in Forest Road, the Old Bailey heard. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Trae Hudson, 17, of Enfield, and Cliff Perreira, 16, of Walthamstow, were found guilty of manslaughter and given four years’ detention.
Hudson was also sentenced to six months, to be served consecutively, for perverting the course of justice.
A third boy, 13 at the time and now 15, was placed under a youth rehabilitation order for perjury.
Friends described Ezekiel, who attended Leyton Sixth Form College, as the “kindest guy”.
