He said his parents were "two broken people", adding: “They will never get over this, none of us will get over it.

"We will be ok, John's at rest... we're not, we'll never be at rest."

The BBC added that Darren, a younger sibling, said John was "no angel" but that he looked up to him, “loved him with all of my heart, and I'll never forget him".

A man, 32, is under arrest on suspicion of murder.
