Police Hunt Silver VW After Stabbing

Police are trying to place a suspect car after four men were involved in a multiple early hours stabbing in east London.

On October 24, last year a 31 year-old man was stabbed several times soon after midnight in Blackhorse Road, near the junction with Lloyd Road.

He was taken to an east London hospital, where he continues to receive treatment for his injuries.

The suspects - described as four young males dressed in dark clothing - fled the scene in a silver VW Golf car before police arrived. 

Officers from the Metropolitan Police's North East Gangs Unit are working to trace any information relating to the vehicle captured on CCTV.

Detective Constable Ramandeep Gahir said: “This was a brutal attack which inflicted a devastating injury on the victim. 

“We are committed to ensuring those responsible are suitably brought to justice for their actions.

“We are seeking the public’s help to identify the vehicle captured on CCTV - do you recognise this silver Volkswagen Golf? 

“Were you in the area on that evening in October and remember seeing something suspicious? If so, please get in contact.”

There have been no arrests and enquiries continue.

Anyone who can help police is asked to call 101 or tweet @MetCC, quoting CAD316/24th Oct20.
