Last night's stabbing comes after a man in his 30s was stabbed to death in Greenwich, South East London in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Officers described it as a “shocking and brutal act of violence ” that led to the man’s death.
After the attendance of paramedics, the man was rushed to hospital where he tragically died a short time later.
His family have been informed and the killer is believed to still be on the loose.
The scene is just yards from several large hotels and Greenwich railway station.
