Police are appealing for witnesses after two men were stabbed overnight on Plumstead High Street.
Police state they were called around 1:30am.
“Officers attended the scene along with ambulance service colleagues. They located two men, aged 21 and 23 years, who were suffering from stab injuries.

Yet more needless and mindless stabbings on the streets of London. More resources must be given to tackle these crimes.
We also need more resources to help our young people to get them away from gangs so they make better lives and futures for themselves.
