A teenage boy was fighting for his life in hospital last night after being stabbed in Hendon.

Police and paramedics attended the scene in New Brent Street just after 6.10pm on Thursday.

There have been no arrests.

A person who wished to be anonymous told the Standard that officers were still at the scene late on Thursday evening.

They said: “It’s never happened before. It’s a very family orientated estate.”
