| Christina Edkins was stabbed to death on the bus to school |
Bus murder victim Christina Edkins told friends a month ago how a fellow passenger made her feel afraid.
The 16-year-old – brutally stabbed to death on her way to school today – said she was alarmed by the behaviour of the “strange man”.
She posted a message on Twitter saying: “This man is worrying me on the bus… keeps getting up and walking up and down stairs, and sitting in different place.”
She also said she “hated” catching buses and was looking forward to learning to drive.
Christina had been on the top deck of the No 9 for just a few minutes when the knife maniac struck as the bus pulled up just after 7.30am in Birmingham city centre.
She had been making her regular 30-minute, seven mile journey to Leasowes high school in Halesowen, where she was due to sit a mock GCSE exam.
Horrified witnesses tried to save her after the driver raised the alarm.
One gave her CPR but the youngster, who turned 16 just a week ago, died in their arms as fellow pupils looked on in tears.
