The family of Luke Wasley, who died in Coleford yesterday, have paid tribute to him, describing him as "a funny, charming and loveable man".
Luke died following a fatal stabbing in Oakfields in the early hours of Wednesday morning.
Speaking today, the 20-year-old's family said: "We are devastated at the loss of our beautiful boy, Luke.
"He was a loving son, brother, grandson and nephew who has been cruelly taken from us. He was a wonderful man with so much of his life still to live.
"A light has gone out in our world. He will never be replaced in our hearts.
"We'd like to thank everybody who has shown us support and would now like to ask for privacy as we grieve the loss of our Luke."
Three people have been arrested on suspicion of murder and currently remain in police custody.
