They’ll renew their appeal for information a week after his death.
The 14-year-old was knocked off his moped by a car and stabbed to death by three people in Bickley Road. Paramedics declared him dead at 7.09pm on Tuesday 8 January.
“We have a number of enquiries that we are pursuing, however, we cannot solve this alone, we need the public to help us,” said DCI Chris Soole.
“Due to the location and time of the attack we know there are a number of people out there who either witnessed the incident or who have information about this heinous crime and we would like to hear from them.”
Officers will also be returning to Carlisle Road, where they found the black Mercedes that forced Jaden from his vehicle. They want to speak to people who may have seen a suspicious black vehicle.
“Jaden’s family are being fully supported and kept updated by our team. This is a truly heartbreaking time for them and we are doing everything we can to find out who was responsible for Jaden’s death.”
“I firmly believe that someone out there knows the people who are responsible for Jaden’s murder.”
There are a number of ways you can contact police.
“If there are any young people who either have information about this incident or other incidents of violence or knife crime, they can visit www.fearless.org where they can pass on information anonymously. Fearless is part of the Crimestoppers charity, and is also independent of the police.
“If you need help or information to support someone you suspect is involved in knife crime, or you want to assistance yourself, then you can visit www.knifefree.co.uk
“The police, our partners and the public must work together to deal with knife crime and prevent further young lives being lost.”
So far no arrests have been made and enquiries continue.
