A young man has been rushed to hospital after a suspected acid attack in a high street in north-east London.
Police and paramedics were called to Stoke Newington High Street at about 2.30am on Thursday.
A corrosive substance was thrown in the 21-year-old victim's face, police said. He also suffered cuts to hands which are believed to have been caused by a knife.
The London Fire Brigade was also called to the scene.
A spokesman for Scotland Yard said: "The man has been taken to an east London hospital. His injuries are not being treated as life-threatening or life-changing."
He added that no arrests have been made and enquiries are ongoing.
