'They have lost a son, a brother and a friend who continues to be missed by those still struggling to come to terms with his untimely death.'

She added: 'Nick needlessly lost his life through an act of violence. Frenzied attacks and acts of violence have consequences for all involved.

'I think a moment of madness - 18 seconds at the most - and a young man, who was fit and healthy, has lost his life.'
