Man, 21, stabbed to death in London

Police are appealing for witnesses to come forward after a 21-year-old man died following a stabbing in London.

Officers were called to Lordship Lane, Haringey, shortly after 6pm on Friday, 13 November following a report that a man had been stabbed.

The London Ambulance Service attended but the man was pronounced dead at the scene.

He has been named as Thomas Oduro from Tottenham.

His next-of-kin have been informed and are being supported by specially trained officers.

An investigation has been launched, and officers are working hard to establish the full circumstances surrounding the killing.

Metropolitan Police Detective Chief Inspector Phil Clarke, who is leading the investigation, said: "Thomas's family have suffered a devastating loss.

"Our thoughts are with them, and they continue to be supported by specialist officers.

"Enquiries continue at the scene and there will be an increased police presence in the area over the coming days.

"As part of our investigation, I'm urging anyone who was in the area of Lordship Recreation Ground around 6pm on Friday, or who has information which may be relevant, to speak to officers or get in touch as soon as possible."
