TRIBUTES have been flooding in for a British teenager who was allegedly stabbed to death by his mum’s ex-partner in Portugal.
Alfie Hallett, 13, was honoured by his local basketball team as a “cherished member” of the community and praised for “leaving an indelible mark” on all those who knew him.
Alfie was fatally attacked with a bladed weapon in the town of Tomar on Tuesday.
The suspect later died after a blast reportedly caused by a gas leak believed to have been deliberately provoked by the alleged killer.
He is believed to have turned on the gas, triggering an explosion that killed him.
His mum, also a British national, and a member of the GNR (National Republican Guard) was injured in the blast.
The Sun has contacted the Foreign Office for comment.
