Victim Ian Baynham

Police arrested two boys and a girl in last month’s fatal beating of a gay man in London, according to Pink News.

Ian Baynham, 62, died following an attack by three teens shouting anti-gay slurs in Trafalgar Square Sept. 25.

According to Boston’s Edge:

The three teens were acting rudely and shouting profanity. When Baynham confronted the teens about their behavior, the beating commenced.

Baynham had just been hired as a civil servant with the U.K. Border Agency after a long job hunt, the media reported. He was out with a friend to celebrate when the encounter took place.

Baynham suffered brain damage in the attack and was on a respirator; the machines were turned off after two weeks, and Baynham died on Oct. 13.

The female suspects, both 17, and the male suspect, 18, were subsequently apprehended at a London home.
