Six men have been arrested after a man died and four others were injured in a mass stabbing incident in Clapham.
A 22-year-old man died after he self-presented with stab wound injuries at a south London hospital on July 27 at 4.37am.
Officers were informed about the knife incident and it was established that the incident took place on Clapham High Street.
Four other men also attended with stab wounds.
Their injuries are not believed to be life-threatening or life-changing, however, they remain in hospital.
The four men—three aged 22 and one 24—have since been arrested on suspicion of murder.
