Breaking: 16-Year-Old Boy Rushed to Hospital After Another London Stabbing.
A TEENAGER was rushed to hospital today (February 14) after being stabbed in BROAD DAYLIGHT in Brockwell Park in Brixton this afternoon.
The 16-year-old was stabbed in front of onlookers, with one woman tweeting: “Just saw a 16-year-old get stabbed in Brockwell Park. Called the ambulance and had to talk to him whilst he was losing consciousness. The police, ambulance and air ambulance came. ‘He is going to ok, but traumatised.’ This very nearly happened to my son – same age, same place.”
