An 18-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and three boys - two aged 17 and one aged 16 - were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to rob.

They have all been bailed pending further enquiries. 

Detectives want to trace 29-year-old Ahmed Farrah over the killing and a £5,000 reward for information leading to his arrest has been offered by Crimestoppers.

It is believed he could hold vital information about the knife attack but is said to be actively evading arrest.

Farrah, who has links to Broomhall and is also known as Reggie, has been described as '˜key' to police enquiries.

Detectives have warned that anyone found shielding him faces prosecution.

Anyone with information should call South Yorkshire Police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
