Eighteen-year-old Daniel Haig admits stabbing Justin McLaughlin, with a 'single blow' at a train station in Glasgow.
An 18-year-old man has admitted killing a schoolboy by stabbing him, but has denied murder.
At Haig's murder trial, the prosecution and defence agreed that he struck Mr McLaughlin with a knife, causing a fatal injury.The court heard of attempts to try and save Justin at the station before he was transferred to the city's Royal Hospital for Children.A post-mortem examination later concluded that Justin, from Coatbrige, North Lanarkshire, died as a result of a "stab wound to the heart".
Haig was said to have run back and the witness recalled one of the group eventually "falling" but did not realise it was Justin until he later learned on social media.
