Two teenagers have been arrested on suspicion of murder after a 19 year-old man was stabbed yesterday on Frampton Park Road, off Well Street.

Officers were called at 4pm on Monday 18 and found a man, believed to be aged 19 years, suffering from multiple stab wounds. He received treatment at the scene, but was pronounced dead at hospital.

The victim’s next of kin have been informed and a post-mortem examination will be held in due course.

A 16 year old was arrested on suspicion of murder this morning and a 19 year-old, arrested yesterday, remains in custody at an East London police station.

The police say they “retain an open mind” regarding the motive for the attack at this time and are appealing for witnesses.

Anyone who was in the area around the time of the attack, witnessed what happened or has any information that could assist the investigation, should call 101. To remain anonymous call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

    So many lives devastated by one evil act, I cannot comprehend how any human being can take another’s life without any thought for the victim the victims family and even their own family we all live in a very sad world.

    I’m sick and tired of this ganglan culture , rap music, knifes guns , I’m so scared to let my children out and play . Why should City life be a crime hub a sanctuary to prats who are one step ahead of the law . Where are the politicians we vote for who are meant to be protecting us . Most of the stabbing and shooting are never documented , because it may effect the property prices . Sick sick sick …. I want out … And one more advise to mums and dad , DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD TO THE ARMY . while the rich live good in Mayfair the poor fights for them , to then return home and sent back to the slums of London …. DONT VOTE . it means nothing … It’s all a big con.
