Harry Potter Actor Killed – Rob Knox, a young Harry Potter actor, was killed in a knife fight while trying to protect his younger brother from an unprovoked knife attack.

The Harry Potter actor killed in the knife attack, 18-year old Rob Knox, plays Ravenclaw student Marcus Belby in the upcoming “Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince” due out in November.

The young Harry Potter actor was stabbed to death after stepping between his younger brother Jamie Knox, 16, and two two men – one of whom was armed with two knives – near the Metro bar, next to Sidcup train station, in south-east London.
The argument started after the 21-year old arrested for Rob Knox’s murder accused a friend of the young actor’s, 21-year old Dean Saunders, of stealing his mobile phone on the Metro the week before.
16-year old Jimmy Knox, the actor’s brother, suffered stab wounds to his chest as did Dean Saunders.
The young Harry Potter actor was killed by a deep stab wound that caused uncontrollable bleeding.

He died on the sidewalk outside the Metro bar, just a few steps from the shoe shop owned by the parents of his rugby teammate and friend, Jimmy Mizzen, who died in a separate unprovoked knife attack two weeks ago.
London has been beset by a wave of violent knife attacks this year as gang violence has spiralled out of control in England where guns are extremely hard to buy.

Friends of Rob Knox mourned his death. “Rob was in the wrong place at the wrong time, he was being there for his brother and sticking up for him.
“Rob would have been trying to calm the situation down, he wouldn’t want to fight. I don’t know anyone who would have a bad word to say about him.”
And that’s the latest news on the Harry Potter actor killed in knife attack.

So sad, these young men should be living life to the full, a whole lifetime ahead of them filled with fun and laughter. Why??? It’s just very depresing that kids have to fear stepping out the door these days. Walk softly over the bridge both Robert and Jimmy may your loss be a lesson to humanity. I have no words to express to the family and friends of these young men just how very sorry I am for your loss. Words are never enough. :’-(

More On The Death Of Rob Knox From British News
Rob Knox is understood to have been fatally stabbed after trying to save his 16-year-old brother, Jamie, from a man armed with two knives.
The man began attacking drinkers outside the Metro bar, next to Sidcup railway station, south-east London. Witnesses said that the attacker had earlier been thrown out by bouncers, but returned in the early hours with several friends.
Tarik Ozresberoglu, 17, a trainee steel worker, described how he tried to stem the flow of blood from Mr Knox’s wounds, then rugby-tackled the attacker into submission.
He said that he was chatting to Rob when the attacker appeared. “He pulled out two wooden kitchen knives at least 6in long from his waistband, and said ‘Who’s going to make my day then?’
“Girls were screaming. Jamie, Rob’s brother, came over and said ‘a boy has pulled a knife on me’. I held Rob back, but he pushed me out of the way and said ‘he’s threatened my little brother’.
“Rob was angry, but he’s never started any trouble in his life. I think he just wanted to protect his younger brother. Rob went up to the bloke, who stabbed him four times.
“Rob stumbled back, lifted up his top and we saw the blood seeping from his wounds.
“I took my jumper off and tried to wrap it round Rob’s wounds. Then as I was trying to do that, I saw the guy was still stabbing people. I told my friend Charlie Grimley, who had also been stabbed, to look after Rob. Then I ran over to the bloke and rugby-tackled him into a bush.”
Struggling to control his emotions, Mr Ozresberoglu added: “I might have felt a hero if Rob was still here, but what I did is never going to bring Rob back. I might have saved more people from being stabbed but Rob still isn’t here.”
He said he thought Mrs Knox was allowed to hold her son in her arms as he lay dying on the pavement. “She was just crying and crying, sobbing ‘why my Rob?’.”
A number of drinkers were hurt, including Dean Saunders, 21, Nick Jones, 19, Mr Grimley, 17, and 16-year-old Andrew Dormer. Russell Wood, 21, said that he saw Mr Saunders stabbed in the neck three times .
Mr Wood said: “This guy started accusing everybody of nicking his mobile phone. He made me turn out my pockets. The bouncers chucked him out. But the next thing we knew this chap was outside with about five of his mates. Everybody just tried to get the knife off him and in the process, it seemed, too many people got stabbed.”
Mr Grimley described how Mr Knox went to his rescue after the attacker “pulled out two knives and said ‘Who wants this?’”
“Rob was just trying to look out for his mate,” said Mr Grimley. “My stab wound had fractured my cheek bone. Rob saw me get stabbed, tried to get the knife off the bloke and was stabbed himself.”
Mr Knox’s father, Colin, was for many years the junior chairman of Sidcup Rugby Club, where Danny Mizen, Jimmy’s brother, was a captain.
Danny Mizen’s youger brother Jimmy Mizen, who played rugby on the same team with Rob Knox, was stabbed to death two weeks ago in another unprovoked knife attack in the same part of london. Danny Mizen said last night: “My thoughts are with his family.”
Kevin May, 42, Mr Knox’s uncle, said: “Where’s it all going to end? When is this violence and the carrying of knives by young people going to stop? Something’s got to be done. Two stabbings in two weeks is too much.”
A spokesman for Warner Brothers, the makers of the Harry Potter films, said: “We are deeply shocked by the news and our thoughts and sympathy are with the family.”
A Scotland Yard spokesman said: “A man aged 21 has been arrested on suspicion of murder. He is being held in custody. We do not believe the incident is gang-related.”
