A man who was fatally stabbed on NSW’s Central Coast has been remembered as a much-loved family member as the alleged 15-year-old suspect remains on the run.

Emergency crews were called to Mann Street in Gosford at 7.30pm on Tuesday, after reports that Zane Robson, 22, had been stabbed multiple times in his chest and abdomen.

He was treated at the scene before being rushed to Gosford Hospital, where he later died.

His family and friends have since remembered the Springfield local as a much-loved son, grandson, brother, brother-in-law and friend.

It is understood that the suspect and Robson were on the same bus before they got off and walked onto the main street, where a fight erupted.

Police said Robson and the boy got on the bus at different stops, but it remains unclear what sparked the incident.

Police say that the pair were known to each other and hopped off the bus moments before the alleged stabbing.

Superintendent Darryl Jobson said the deadly stabbing was not a random attack.

“This is an incident in which we believe the parties were known to each other,” Jobson said.

“There is no threat to the broader community.

“We have identified a number of witnesses and statements have been taken.”

A crime scene has been set up and police say the teenager, who remains at large, was last seen on Mann Street.

He is described as about 175cm tall and was wearing a shirt with a vest.
