"Not someone else. There has been so many this year already."
"Yet another young life taken by knife crime in Greater Manchester."
"This is getting out of control."
These are just some of the responses from M.E.N readers following the tragic news that yet another teenager had been stabbed and killed in our city this weekend.
The body of a 17-year-old boy was found in Clowes Park in the Broughton area of Salford on Sunday morning (31 January), after a dog walker reported seeing a man unresponsive.
He was found with a single stab wound and pronounced dead at the scene.

A 17-year-old boy has been arrested on suspicion of murder, as detectives attempt to piece together the circumstances that lead to the death of yet another youngster.
It comes just a week after the death of 16-year-old Kennie Carter, who died after being stabbed in Stretford on Saturday, 22 January.
Eight teenage boys aged between 14 and 17 have been arrested on suspicion of murder. Three have been released with no further action and five have been bailed pending further enquiries.
The latest stabbing prompted Greater Manchester Police to hold an urgent press conference, in a bid to reassure members of the public that tackling knife crime is their 'top priority.'
Assistant Chief Constable Tony Creely said he wanted to 'put it on record' that knife crime will not be tolerated by the force.
"I would like to reiterate the Chief Constable's promise to Greater Manchester that GMP is a force which focuses on fighting, preventing and reducing crime to keep people safe," he told journalists.
