A teenager was stabbed in an incident at Teddington Lock on Friday evening.

The 14-year-old male suffered injuries, believed not to be life-threatening, during a suspected robbery.

In a statement, a Metropolitan Police spokesperson explained that police were called to Teddington Lock at 8:13pm last Friday, after receiving reports of a large fight and possible stabbing.

Large crowds of youths were dispersed and a knife was recovered from the scene.

A Section 60 order was put in place on Friday evening, providing officers with additional search powers.

London Ambulance Service paramedics also attended, but were unable to locate the victim of the stabbing.
