A HUGE memorial to teenager Cole Kershaw, who was shot dead last month, has been created at a Bury park.

Grieving family and friends have left tributes and a sea of flowers at the Clarence Park bandstand.

Many have also lit candles and left balloons, a King Cole Kershaw T-shirt and cap, photographs and messages in memory of Cole.

An appeal is also underway to raise funds for the funeral and memorial costs for the 18-year-old.

So far more than £7,000 has been donated ­— far exceeding its £2,500 target ­— and his family have now set a new goal of £15,000.

The money will go towards providing a memorial and supporting funeral expenses.

Cole was gunned down in Chesham Road at around 9.40pm on August 12. He was taken to hospital but died a short time later.

Detectives investigating the murder have said they believe Cole was not the intended target of the attackers.
