Teen actor in upcoming 'Harry Potter' film killed

LONDON (AP) -- A British teenage actor playing a minor role in the upcoming "Harry Potter" film was stabbed to death during a brawl in London on Saturday, police said.

Rob Knox, 18, was stabbed after he got caught up in a fight outside a bar in southwest London early Saturday, London's Metropolitan Police said in a statement.

Knox plays Ravenclaw student Marcus Belby in the upcoming film "Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince," the sixth installment of the popular series set for release in November.

Warner Bros., the studio that is producing the film, said it was shocked by the news.

Knox was one of five young men taken to various hospitals after the brawl, police said. Among them was a 21-year-old who has since been arrested on suspicion of murder.

The fight did not appear to be gang-related, police added, but it puts the number of violent teenage deaths in London at 14 so far this year.
 
I read about it earlier today. I was shocked. Wow...
 
I'm not surprised...If the teen wanted to engage in a fight, anything is supposed to assume to happen, one will never know when a weapon will be used or not.
 
It is shame that he died so young. sooo sad for his family and freinds.
 
That is sad. It is a shame that he died so young.

And we could do without any links pertaining to the Sun, as that is equivalent to cyber toilet paper. But however the BBC, The Daily Telegraph, CNN, People, and Yahoo! are fine as they are generally accurate.
