A 17-year-old stabbed to death in northwest London over the weekend became the 11th person to die of knife wounds in the capital in the past two weeks alone.
The teenager, who is yet to be identified, was found by paramedics on Walthamstow High Street on Saturday just after 11:30pm.
The boy was rushed to hospital but died of his wounds shortly after, according to the Metropolitan Police, which has launched a murder investigation.
The victim is thought to have found himself embroiled in an altercation in a Lidl parking lot before being killed.
Ahmed Ahmed, 30, owner of a nearby café, told the Evening Standard: “It was a fight in the Lidl car park.
“This is the area groups of young people get together. We have been asking police to do something about it.”
The latest incident is the second fatal stabbing recorded over the weekend in London, after a 23-year-old man died after being found stabbed in Uxbridge at 1am on Saturday morning.
