They have not yet recovered his Apollo Awesome BMX bike.
Mr Campbell, of St John's Road, Boscombe, was found at the bottom of a communal garden behind the property, which comprises of several flats.
His body was found by a walker. Post-mortem tests revealed he died from a stab wound to the chest.

'Isolated incident'
Meanwhile, British Transport Police are searching a railway line that borders the property, on the junction of St Clement's Road and Cleveland Road.
Mr Campbell was in his first year at Bournemouth University, studying a four-year degree in IT and business studies.
Professor Jim Roach, dean of the School of Design, Engineering and Computing, said: "We are all very shocked by the news of Luke's death.
"Our thoughts are with Luke's family and friends at this time. We are working to support our students and staff who have been affected by this tragic news."
Det Ch Insp Neil Redstone, who said Mr Campbell's death was believed to be an "isolated incident", appealed for the public's help.
"I also need to hear from anyone who has seen the green BMX bicycle - or has information about its whereabouts - since that time," he said.
An inquest into Mr Campbell's death was due to be opened on Monday afternoon.
