A murder investigation has been launched after a 22-year-old man was stabbed to death.

Scotland Yard said police, the London Ambulance Service and London’s Air Ambulance were called to an address at St Mary’s Close in Tottenham, north London, in the early hours of Saturday after reports of a stabbing.

The murder investigation is being led by the Homicide and Major Crime Command.

The victim’s next of kin have been informed and a post-mortem examination date has yet to be set.

Detective chief inspector Andrew Packer said: “I am keen to hear from anyone who was in the vicinity of Kemble Road and St Mary’s Close in the early hours of Saturday morning.”
