The teenager killed in a stabbing at a park in Abbotsford, B.C., on Sunday has been identified as Billy Ledoux. The 15-year-old was found by police suffering, life-threatening injuries after a stabbing incident at Larch Park in the 2600 block of Beck Road Sunday evening. According to authorities, he succumbed to his injuries despite the efforts of bystanders and paramedics. 'Billy was only 15 years old and had his whole life ahead of him,' says Sgt. Freda Fong of IHIT in a release issued Tuesday afternoon. 'Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and classmates. As the community mourns the loss of Billy, his family asks that all come together to remember and celebrate his life. They are encouraging the community to seek peace, not revenge.' The two youths previously arrested by police near the scene have since been cleared of their involvement and released to their parents, IHIT said in the update. While the investigation is still in its beginning stages, police said early indications suggest the incident was not a random attack. 'We believe there are individuals who know what happened to Billy and we are asking them to do the right thing by contacting IHIT,' said Fong.
