Family pay tribute to 16-year-old who died after an incident on the London Underground

The family of a 16-year-old girl paid tribute to their “smart, beautiful, clever and funny daughter” who died after an incident at a subway station.

British Transport Police (BTP) were called to Loughton Underground station in Essex just after 2.30pm on Monday following reports of a death on the tracks.

Paramedics responded to Daisy House, but despite all efforts, the young man later died in hospital.

Daisy’s family paid tribute to her and said: “On Monday, our beautiful daughter Daisy passed away. “She was a bright, beautiful, intelligent and funny girl who had just started Sixth Form and had her whole future ahead of her.

“We would like to thank all the emergency services and doctors who worked so hard to save him, especially the British Transport Police officer and the pediatric nurses who treated us all with kindness.

“Thank you to everyone who sent their best wishes, kind messages and floral gifts. We ask that our privacy be respected as we now come to terms with the loss of our Daisy and what life will be like without our daughter.”

Police requested that the privacy of families coming to terms with their tragic loss be respected.
