Heartbroken fiancée pleads for help to find killer of man stabbed to death on city street
THE FIANCÉE of a man stabbed to death in a Yorkshire city street has made a heartbreaking plea for help to find those involved in the murder.
Kelsey Dixon, 23, who had three children with 22-year-old Jarvin Blake, yesterday urged anyone with information about the knife attack in Sheffield to come forward.
Mr Blake was stabbed at the junction of Catherine Street and Brackley Street in Burngreave on Thursday, March 8.
Four arrests have been made, but nobody has been charged over the killing.
Miss Dixon said: “I need justice for Jarvin and I need to know who did this and why.”
Mr Blake had three children, a son and two daughters aged five, three and just seven months old, and in a moving tribute to her partner of seven years, Miss Dixon said that he was a “fantastic dad”.
She added: “We have three beautiful children. He was a fantastic dad who loved spending time with them and our son keeps asking when his daddy is coming home.
“Jarvin will now not be able to see them grow up or share key milestones in their lives.
“I’m completely devastated and don’t know how I’m going to live without him.”
Miss Dixon, who was planning her wedding to Mr Blake that was due to be held over the next couple of years, said: “Jarvin had everything to live for.
“He was a father, partner, son, brother and friend. He had a passion for life and was a handsome, funny and caring family man. My heart is completely broken and life will never be the same again. I just want someone to tell me that this has all been a bad dream.”
Making a direct appeal for anyone with information about the stabbing to come forward, Miss Dixon added: “Jarvin didn’t deserve to die. He was stabbed to death in the middle of the afternoon in the street.”
Witnesses or anyone with information is asked to call South Yorkshire Police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
