Police were called to Arcola Street, in Dalston, at around 7.30pm.

The teen victim was rushed to hospital with knife wounds and remains in a critical condition, Scotland Yard said.

Two men in their mid-20s were arrested after yet another night of violence in the capital.

It comes just two days after a 22-year-old man was gunned down and stabbed to death in Newham, East London.

CCTV footage from a local convenience store showed four people running from the scene of the murder.

LAWLESS LONDON

His death was the 36th murder in the capital this year after 2018's bloodshed caused the highest London murder rate for a decade.

On Tuesday a victim in his late 20s was knifed by two men in Mottingham, South East London, in a terrifying broad daylight attack in which his moped was stolen.

The horror came a day after three teens were taken to hospital after being stabbed within minutes of each other in north-east London.

Four arrests were made and the victims' injuries were not life-threatening, Scotland Yard said.
