People - dressed in band T-shirts - are today expected to line the streets of Plymouth's Leigham area to pay their final respects to Bobbi-Anne Mcleod

Bobbi-Anne's family have made a request ahead of this lunchtime's funeral at the city's St. Andrews Church - asking people to be respectful but also wear the type of band t-shirts that she loved wearing.

The 18 year old's death shocked the city - after she was attacked while waiting alone at a bus stop in November - and today many people are expected to pay their respects.

Last week serial killer-obsessed Cody Ackland was jailed for a minimum of 30 years for her murder - which a judge called 'chilling'.

The post online reads: "Hi everyone just to let everyone know Bobbi-Anne Mcleod funeral has now been arranged.

"It will be St. Andrews church in Plymouth, at 12.30. Thursday 26th May.

"If you cannot attend for work or other reasons bobbi will be leaving her home address at 11.20 and heading to the windmill and will then be take by horse and carriage to the church.

"If you would like too line the street in Leigham you are more than welcome. Dress code is band t-shirts such as pink flloyd , Nirvana, ACDC , green day , guns and roses , queen , Eminem and oasis if you cannot get one just an ordinary blue T-shirt will be fine but please try for the band t-shirts as she loved wearing these with black trousers or black jeans no rips please .
