"We are all heartbroken by our loss and Scott will be sorely missed by all.
"Scott was an outgoing, happy person who enjoyed life to the full. He had a love for football and enjoyed gaming on his PlayStation.
"We have been totally shocked by the recent events and will never understand why this has happened to Scott.
"We would ask that our privacy is respected at this difficult time.''
