A murder investigation has been launched after a teenager was stabbed to death in Slough.

Officers were called at around 7.55pm on Saturday to Benjamin Lane, Wexham, following reports that an 18-year-old had been stabbed following an altercation.

South Central Ambulance Service attended the scene and took the injured male to Wexham Park Hospital for treatment, but he was later pronounced dead. His next of kin have been informed.
