THIS is the harrowing moment a killer ducks for cover after getting a bus past the vape shop where he brutally stabbed a schoolboy to death.
Reuben Higgins, 17, was fatally stabbed in the shop in Marston Green, West Midlands, on October 29 after being chased by a gang of teens.

Eerie footage shows the group of four teenagers entering the town, where they confronted Reuben and some of his friends.
They then chased down Reuben, who sought refuge in a nearby vape shop.
Tragically, the violent thugs forced their way in, with footage appearing to show the vile teens kicking in the door.
Once inside, they fatally stabbed Reuben.
Harrowing footage after the attack, recorded onboard a bus, shows one of the teens fleeing the scene.
As the bus he’s travelling on passes the vape shop, where Reuben had just been brutally murdered, the vile teen appears to duck to avoid being spotted.
He can be seen slinking in his seat, wearing his hood, as blue lights are spotted in the background outside the scene of the horrific murder.
As the bus finally pulls clear of the scene, the coward then rises back, with his hood still on and the lower part of his face covered by a mask.
Today, three of the teens were jailed for their part in Reuben’s murder.
Abdurrahman Summers, 19, was convicted earlier this year over Reuben’s death.
He was identified alongside two other teenagers – who cannot be named because of their age – after West Midlands Police began its investigation.
Summers was jailed for life with a minimum of 19 years at Birmingham Crown Court, while the two other teens received sentences of 15 and 17 years in youth detention respectively.
A fourth suspect, who has been identified, fled the country and remains wanted in connection with Reuben’s murder.

Detective Inspector Michelle Cordell, who led the investigation, said: “This was a cowardly and sickening attack on a defenceless young boy who was significantly outnumbered.
“Their callous actions that day ended Reuben’s life in a matter of seconds.
“Their senseless behaviour has had a devastating and lifelong impact on Reuben’s family, friends and loved ones and my thoughts remain with them.
“I hope that today’s sentences offer some comfort to them, as they continue to grieve his loss.
“The hunt for the fourth offender is on-going, and we will do everything possible to find him and bring him to justice.”
