Crimestoppers is offering up to £20,000 for information following a fatal stabbing in Leicester.

The man was seen near to Narborough Road on Wednesday 27 September, close to where 50-year-old Junior Osbourne was stabbed.

He was taken to hospital and later died from his injuries.

Lydia Patsalides, East Midlands Regional Manager at the charity Crimestoppers, said: “Junior Osborne is described by his loved ones as a ‘beloved brother, dad and husband’."

"Crimestoppers knows how hard it is for people to speak up when they know something about crime, especially if it’s about serious crime such as this murder.

"If you recognise this person in the CCTV footage, you could make a huge difference by telling our charity."
