A teenager was stabbed in broad daylight in Abbey Wood over the weekend.

Police confirmed they were called to the football cage on Wolvercote Road on Sunday at around 5.45pm, where a 19-year-old was suffering from a stab wound.

There have been unconfirmed local reports that the teenager was stabbed with some kind of cordless drill or screwdriver.

A spokesman for the Met Police said: "The 19-year-old man was taken to a south London hospital where he remains in a stable condition.

"His injuries are not believed to be life-threatening."

An investigation is ongoing, but no arrests have been made.
