THE nation's knife crime epidemic has claimed another life as a teenager died after being stabbed in a town centre attack.

Syed Haider Ali Shah, 19, became the fourth West Yorkshire victim of the weekend.

He was rushed to hospital after the stabbing in the early hours of Sunday but could not be saved.

His death followed that of 21-year-old Joshua Clark Meszaros, who was also fatally knifed during the same incident in Halifax town centre.
