Written by on 15/05/2017

A murder investigation has been launched after a teenager died following reports of a fight involving a number of people.

The 18-year-old male was found with stab wounds after police were called to a report of an altercation.

Officers arrived on the scene in Hertford Road, Enfield, north London, at around 10.30pm on Saturday.

Two other victims, a 19-year-old male and a 17-year-old male, were found nearby in Palmers Lane with injuries caused by stabbing.

All three victims were taken to hospitals in north and east London by London Ambulance Service.

The 18-year-old was pronounced dead at around 11.40pm. Next of kin have been informed and formal identification and a post-mortem will take place in due course, police said.

The injuries to the 17-year-old and the 19-year-old are not thought to be life-threatening.

No arrests have yet been made and officers are appealing for help with their inquiry.

A spokesman said: "Detectives from the Homicide and Major Crime Command are investigating.

"Any witnesses, or anyone with information that may assist the investigation, should contact police via 101 or Tweet @MetCC.

"Information can also be reported anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or online at the www.crimestoppers-uk.org website."
