A large brawl which erupted in Penge left one man with stab injuries and two 12-year-old boys in hospital.
Police were called to reports of a ‘large group’ of people fighting in the street just before 9pm on Saturday (August 22).
It is thought an altercation started in Penge Recreational Park, off Maple Road, before the fight spilled on to the street.
Both paramedics from the London Ambulance Service (LAS) and police officers attended the scene and found a 22-year-old man with stab wounds to his leg and shoulder.
