Arin Lyth was a 13 year old boy that had recently moved from Northfield school in Billingham, Teesside after being repeatedly bullied. He was the 3rd pupil at from his school to die after falling victim from the bulling the other pupils names were Harry Gray aged 15 and Elton Harland age 13.
Harry Gray was found by his mother hanging from outside his bedroom. It was rumoured that someone had threatened to get him stabbed. The body of Arin Lyth was found in an area near Billingham. Elton tweeted a tribute to Harry and then when two days past he took his own life.


I chose this story because I think that its horrible that people would bully someone so much causing them to take there own life, I think to myself what did these poor boys do to deserve such torment causing them to just give up on life. I feel so sorry for there parents having to bury there child that they have raised and loved. What I cant get out of my head is the fact "three" boys from the same school have fallen victim of bullying and the school seems to have done nothing to prevent it from happening again.

As for representation this comes under issues which is bullying

London zoo gorilla broke enclosure glass twice before escape I recently found this story from the Guardian about a gorilla called kumbuka that escaped the enclosure at London zoo on Thursday evening it was reported that he broke out of his area and was later tranquillised by the vets and was brought back to his area. It has been reported that the london zoo have said that they are going to carry out a full investigation which has been described as a minor accident. Sources have stated that the cage door was left open. I chose this story because I usually here about animals escaping the zoo in movies and to here that a real life zoo animal escaped the zoo is quite astonishing. I also think that the zoo keepers should be more careful and should make sure that they close the cage, luckily for them no one was hurt.
