A man has died after being found with serious stab injuries in south east London.

Police were called to Heron Hill Road in Belvedere shortly after 6am on Friday by paramedics to reports of a man with stab injuries.

Officers attended and found a man seriously injured.

"The man was transported a short distance by ambulance to Plumstead High Street, where paramedics from the air ambulance treated him," Scotland Yard said in a statement.
