Anthony Walker
Anthony Delano Walker (21 February 1987 – 30 July 2005) was a Black British student of Jamaican descent who was murdered with an ice axe by Michael Barton (brother of footballer Joey Barton) and Barton's cousin Paul Taylor, in an unprovoked, racially motivated attack on the night of 29–30 July 2005 in Huyton, Merseyside. Walker was eighteen years old and was in his second year of A-levels. He lived with his parents, Gee Walker and Steve Walker, his two sisters and one brother.
The Walker family were the first black family to live in Huyton, and the children experienced racial name -calling at both primary and secondary school. Both Walker and Taylor attended Knowsley Hey High School.
Taylor and Barton had a reputation for racially abusing others. Taylor had prior convictions for battery, and burglary, and at the time of the crime was on early release from a young offenders' centre
