Southwark stabbing: Police appeal after teenager attacked in London park

Police are appealing for witnesses to come forward after a man was stabbed in a park in south London.

Officers attended Newington Gardens, Southwark, at around 9.40pm on Friday, 11 April, alongside the London Ambulance Service following reports that a man had been stabbed.

A 19-year-old was taken to hospital for treatment, where his injuries were assessed as non-life changing.

Police are asking anyone who witnessed the incident - or who has relevant CCTV or dashcam footage if they were around Newington Gardens at the time - to call 101, quoting CAD 7827/11APR. To remain 100 per cent anonymous, contact the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.

A man has been charged with wounding with intent and has appeared in court.
