Neighbors told MailOnline that Selby lived with his grandparents after his parents’ relationship broke down.

His sister went with his mum and Matthew stayed with dad for a while before moving in with his grandparents. He was a happy lad. It’s so sad.’

Matthew Selby Charged
The 19-year-old has appeared in court charged with murdering a 15-year-old at a busy seaside caravan site.
On Saturday, July 31, the tragedy happened at Ty Mawr Holiday Park, Towyn, a seaside resort popular with families.
Selby, of Windermere Crescent, Ashton-under-Lyne, Greater Manchester, was accused of murdering the 15-year-old at the site.
Trial
This afternoon district judge Gwyn Jones at Llandudno Magistrates Court remanded him in custody until tomorrow when he will appear again at Mold Crown Court.
Selby, wearing a grey sweatshirt and between two guards in the glass-fronted dock, spoke only to confirm his name, address, and date of birth and confirm that he understood the charge.
Prosecutor James Neary said there was no entitlement to bail. In contrast, during a hearing that lasted less than two minutes, Selby’s defense solicitor Simon Sargent said, ‘ I have nothing to add, save to say this a tragic case.’
An air ambulance rushed to the scene on Saturday afternoon, as parts of the Parkdean resort and a caravan were cordoned off while police investigated the 100acre park.
