The murder of an upcoming British model Harry Uzoka on a London street left the fashion world devastated this week. But in an even more tragic twist, his murderers turned out to be two other models.

It’s suspected that Uzoka, 25, a model with Britain’s Premier agency who had walked runways for Zara and Mercedes, was killed because he was a rival of IMG model George Koh, 24,  who worked with Louis Vuitton and Paul Smith and was arrested along with Johnathan Okigbo.

According to multiple reports, Uzoka was found collapsed in the Shepard’s Bush area of London after a single stab wound.

British model Jourdan Dunn tweeted her shock.

 

As did the denim brand Everlane who Uzoka had worked with:

 

Uzoka’s girlfriend provided a heartwrenching post of memories as well.
