The family of a 14-year-old boy who died in an industrial fire in Gateshead have described him as a "kind, caring and loving boy" who was "loved by all that met him".
Eleven boys and three girls, aged between 11 and 14, were arrested on suspicion of manslaughter over Layton Carr's death but have been released on bail.
Northumbria Police said on Monday that two more 12-year-old boys had also been arrested and bailed.
Layton died at the scene at Fairfield industrial park on Friday evening.
In a statement, his family said: "From the minute he was born it was obvious the character he would turn out to be.
"Layton was your typical 14-year-old lad, a cheeky, happy lad. Despite his cheeky side Layton had an absolute heart of gold and would do anything for anyone.
"He was loved by all that met him, and it showed.
"He was a family boy that loved his mam and sisters more than anything in the world.
"Layton, we love you more than any words can ever explain. You will be missed more than you'll ever know. Our bright and beautiful boy."
They added: "As a family we would like to say a massive thank you to all that helped in finding Layton."

"It's also important to note that anyone suspected of a crime must not be named publicly for legal reasons and those who are under 18 have anonymity.
