Charity director Robin Pritchard said he moved through a crowd and saw the victim lying in a pool of blood while someone provided CPR.
The 47-year-old said: “I saw the guy on the floor, a pool of blood like he’d been stabbed in the stomach, his clothes were soaked.
“It was strangely calm and quiet. I think everyone was in shock. Lots of kids there from the local college.”
The youngster is the second teenage boy to be stabbed to death in the capital in 24 hours.

Another witness, who did not want to be named, said he saw “a bunch of guys” shouting and appearing agitated, with one carrying a large knife.
He added that the area is usually noisy after students leave nearby Saint Francis Xavier College.
Photographs posted on social media showed a police cordon in place outside Clapham South station after scores of emergency services vehicles descended on the scene.
