Two men were stabbed in the centre of Putney in the early hours of this Sunday morning (3 October).

Police believe the injured men were part of a larger group that were involved in an altercation on the Upper Richmond Road near the junction with Putney Hill at around 1.55am.

One of the victims was in his twenties and the other in his thirties. Neither has received life threatening injuries although both were taken to hospital and one has arrested in connection with the incident.

At this early stage, officers believe the two men had been among a much larger group who were fighting in Upper Richmond Road, possibly having been drinking in venues nearby.

Enquiries are ongoing to establish the circumstances, including identifying any available CCTV.

Detectives from the Met’s South West BCU are appealing for any witnesses or anyone with information the incident to call 101 and quote reference 738/03oct.
