Detectives investigating the fatal stabbing of Ahmed Beker have issued a renewed appeal urging people to come forward with information.

It comes almost a week after officers were called to Paddington Green following a report of a stabbing.

Police, London Ambulance Service and the London’s Air Ambulance attended the scene after 9pm on February 26 and found the 19-year-old suffering from life-threatening injuries.

Paramedics fought for 45 minutes to save the young man’s life but he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Homicide detectives from the Met’s Specialist Crime Command have stated that two mopeds, driving erratically, travelled against the traffic going back towards Harrow Road from Paddington Green around the time of the incident.

One of the mopeds drove on the pavement.

The team are urging anyone with dash cam footage of the mopeds to come forward and assist them with the investigation.

On Monday officers recovered a moped from the Grand Union Canal near to Great Western Studios, Alfred Road.

Officers would also like anyone who may have seen anything suspicious in this area since the evening of Friday, 26 February, to come forward with information.

Anyone with information about the incident is urged to call 101 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
