Grint Attends Murdered Co-Stars Funeral

HARRY POTTER star RUPERT GRINT was among the mourners at the funeral of his
murdered co-star ROBERT KNOX at an emotional service in England on Wednesday
(25Jun08).

Grint, who plays Potter’s sidekick Ron Weasley in the wizard franchise, paid
his respects to the aspiring actor who died from multiple stab wounds following
an altercation in Kent, England last month (May08).

Knox appears as Marcus Belby in the forthcoming film Harry Potter And The
Half-Blood Prince, and “looked up to” the Harry Potter stars, according to his
father John Knox.

The service was attended by hundreds of friends and family in the Knox’s
hometown of Sidcup, where the murder took place.

Actor Daniel Radcliffe was unable to attend the service due to work
commitments in the U.S.

A man has been charged with Knox’s murder.
