"The family are lost for words at the moment, we truly cannot believe this has happened to our Sam.
It's an absolutely horrendous situation and so difficult to fathom.
We appreciate your thoughts and prayers at this difficult time and thank you for giving us the privacy so we can grieve."
Note to media: Samuel’s family have asked for privacy at this time and Police seek the support of media in respecting their request for privacy as they grieve.
