The family of a teenager who died after collapsing at Liverpool One have paid tribute to their "handsome, loving, caring boy".

15-year-old Euan McNamara was studying for his GCSEs at St Mary's College in Crosby.

He died after collapsing in Browns restaurant on Saturday, October 22, where he'd been having a meal out with his mum, dad and younger sister Megan.

His parents, Michael and Sian, say they'd been out shopping on Saturday afternoon before tragedy struck at the restaurant.

In a statement they say despite immediate medical intervention by off-duty medics, Euan later sadly passed away in hospital.

They've released the following tribute:

"Euan was a much-loved son, brother, grandson, nephew and friend. He was studying for his GCSE exams, a keen rugby player, cricket player and LFC Supporter, regularly attending games with family and friends.

"Euan was loved and adored by all who knew him and his death has left a massive void in all of our lives. He was a handsome, loving, caring boy with an infectious personality that touched everyone he met.

"We are devastated by what has happened, and hope that in the forthcoming days we will find out why Euan has been cruelly taken away from us. "
