A man, believed to be in his 20s, was pronounced dead at the scene, while another man, also thought to be in his 20s was taken to hospital where his injuries are not thought to be life threatening.

Later on in the evening at 8.37pm, police were called to the Barnet Bypass in north London, close to Scratchwood Park, after reports of a man, believed to be in his 20s, found with stab wounds. He was taken to hospital.

Police searched a nearby car, where they found a man in his 30s. He was treated at the scene but died a short time later.
