Teenager stabbed to death in Walthamstow
Online Editor Matthew Hinchliffe
Police are refusing to rule out a link between a spate of teenage stabbings that last night resulted in the death of a seventeen year old in Walthamstow, east London.
Metropolitan Police and the London Ambulance services were called to the scene following an altercation between youths at approximately 10.30pm in Walthamstow high-street. They found a seventeen year old suffering from stab wounds. He was later pronounced dead at the scene.
Commuters heading to work found much of the high-street cordoned off this morning which remained throughout the day as police forensic teams meticulously scoured the streets for evidence.
It is hoped that the relatively cold weather spell and the speed in-which police teams arrived on the scene will lead to some quick arrests.
A local policeman said: “We have been inundated with enquires from the general public but at this time I cannot release any more information.”
It is however believed from local sources that the deceased is in-fact a local youth of around seventeen years of age however local reporters have been met with a wall of silence from local people. To date there has been no-further information released to the press.
Wonderful work! That is the kind of info that should be shared across the net. Shame on the search engines for now not positioning this submit higher! Come on over and discuss with my website . Thanks =)
