The teen and his friend had met with two other teens in the street – with a fight breaking out “within moments”.
Both groups threw punches at each other before Prince and his friend left.
Two teen boys have been jailed for life for their role in Prince’s murder.
Detective Chief Inspector Neil Higginson said: “Firstly, I would like to express my deepest condolences to Prince’s family and friends.
“They have shown undeniable togetherness in the face of adversity.
“They have carried themselves with dignity and respect throughout the course of this investigation and subsequent trial.
“Sadly, over the past few years, we have seen many instances like this where a young boy in his teenage years has lost his life.
“Prince’s death is another hard-hitting reminder of the devastating effect that carrying knives can have.
“Not only has one boy lost his life but the impact of this incident has left a family scarred, something that they will carry with them for the rest of their lives.
“I would like to thank the local community and the general public who came forward and provided statements which aided our enquiries.
“My team also deserve a huge amount of credit for their hard work and dedication throughout this investigation.”
