This is the horrifying moment a 16-year-old gang member stabbed a rival in revenge for a 'Zombie knife' killing.
The boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is tonight facing years behind bars after being convicted of attempted murder for the brutal attack which was captured on CCTV.
In the video footage the teenager can be seen leaning over a shop counter to plunge his knife into the chest of his unnamed 16 year-old victim in Newington Green, north London.
A court heard the attack was part of an ongoing feud between his 'Essex Road Boys' gang and the rival 'Red Pitch Boys' following the fatal stabbing of 17-year-old Stefan Appleton in 2015.
Detectives later recovered a video of the 16-year-old rapping about knives, gangs and violence and posing with another member of the 'Essex Road Boys' who was wearing a top emblazoned with 'RIP Stefan Appleton'.
The Old Bailey heard how members of the 'Essex Road Boys' stormed the shop on Matthias Road, Stoke Newington, on March 17 this year shouting 'f*** you' - and brandishing large Rambo-style blades.
