Mr Faletolu was fatally stabbed at a brawl at the Sydney Royal Easter Show on Monday night.
The teenager was on a break from working on the Break-Dance ride about 8pm on Monday when tensions between two groups escalated and a fight broke out.
Mr Faletolu was knifed in the chest and died on his way to hospital despite paramedics working to save his life.
Police are investigating whether the fatal stabbing of Mr Faletolu at the Royal Easter Show is linked to ongoing violence between rival postcode gangs from Western Sydney.
Police are also looking into reports the victim was linked to the 67 street gang which has clashed recently with the Ready For Anything group from Mt Druitt.
The stabbing happened in the main carnival area which transforms as dusk settles in, attracting teens and young people who like to stay out late. It is only steps away from the bustling showbag dome usually filled with hundreds of kids and families.
