A ‘fun loving’ teenager has died in hospital after he was stabbed in the head by gatecrashers at a wild house party.
Jason Langhans, 17, was viciously attacked in the early hours of March 21 at the home in Tooradin in Melbourne’s south-east.
He was rushed to hospital and had multiple surgeries before being placed in the ICU, but suffered a stroke following medical complications on April 6.
This week, Jason’s family were forced to make the heart-breaking decision to turn off his life support.
His mother Carolyn Langhans remains in disbelief she will soon have to bury her son.
‘Jason you were our whole life and not a day will go by without us thinking about you and wishing you were here, we love you so much and our lives feel so empty,’ she wrote on Facebook.
‘You put up a good fight but unfortunately, it was your time to go and now you’re no longer in any pain.’
His sister Stacey Langhans is equally devastated.

‘Jason had everything going for him and has had it all taken away before he could even experience his life,’ she told the Herald Sun.
‘Our son and baby brother have been murdered and whoever did this is still running around free.’
The family wants answers and vowed not to give up until the killer was brought to justice.
Family friend Greg Angus described the attack on Jason as ‘senseless’ and said whoever was responsible can ‘rot in hell.’
Detectives from the Victorian homicide squad have launched an investigation into Mr Langhans’ death.
‘Detectives are looking into reports a group of men became involved in an incident with the teen which escalated to a physical altercation,’ police said.
‘The Cranbourne North boy was taken to hospital at the time with life threatening injuries.’
