Crowds gather in park where Amen played football to remember ‘remarkable’ teenager, who died on Wednesday

Amen Teklay, a “remarkable” teenager who loved music and was light on his feet on the football pitch, was remembered by friends and family on Sunday afternoon at a vigil near his family home in Scotstoun, Glasgow.

A crowd of more than 100 mainly younger people gathered to pay their respects to the 15-year-old Eritrean refugee, who died on Wednesday night in the St George’s Cross area of the city, in the park where he played football.
