Stephen Sutton Passes

Teenage cancer fundraiser Stephen Sutton has died peacefully in his sleep, his mother said on his Facebook page.

The 19-year-old, from Burntwood, raised more than £3.2m for the Teenage Cancer Trust after news of his plight spread on social media.

Jane Sutton said he had died in the early hours.

In a Facebook post announcing Stephen's death, she said he was a "courageous, selfless, inspirational son".

She added: "The ongoing support and outpouring of love for Stephen will help greatly at this difficult time, in the same way as it helped Stephen throughout his journey."
