28 year old Michael
Adegbite, a role model, fitness instructor and teaching assistant who
campaigned against knife crime in the UK was stabbed to death after robbers
pretended to be interested in buying the second hand MacBook laptop he
advertised on a classified website- Gumtree for 200 pounds.
It was learnt that
he went with a friend to meet someone they believed was a buyer in Enfield on
Sunday evening but were confronted by 3 youngsters.
Police believe the men lured
the 28-year-old to the rendezvous with the intention of mugging him for the
laptop. Mr Adegbite and his friend managed to snatch the laptop back after they
tried to rob them and the suspects ran off.
However, Police say
shortly after the incident, another joined the victim and the 3 men set out to
look for the group who had attempted to rob them. Minutes later, they found the
group, a confrontation and a scuffle ensued on the street and Mr Adegbite got
stabbed once in the chest.
He died by the roadside 30 minutes after he was stabbed despite frantic attempts by paramedics to save his life.
