Two men and a woman arrested after man in his 20s stabbed to death in Valley Retail Park in Croydon

Two men and a woman have been arrested on suspicion of murder after a man in his 20s was stabbed to death in a south London retail park.

Police were called to reports of a stabbing in Hesterman Way, Croydon, at around 1.15am on Sunday.

Metropolitan Police officers and the London Ambulance Service found three men with stab wounds at the scene at the Valley Retail Park.

A 22-year-old man died after being taken to hospital, the force said, adding that his next of kin were being supported by specialist officers.

Two other men, both aged 21, were also taken to hospital and have both since been arrested on suspicion of affray.

One, whose injuries are believed to be life-threatening, is still there, while the other is now in police custody.

Two women, both aged 25, and a 28-year-old man, were arrested on suspicion of murder on Sunday and remain in police custody.

Two further women, aged 21 and 22, have been arrested on suspicion of affray.

The 21-year-old woman has been bailed while inquiries continue and the 22-year-old woman remains in police custody.

Detective Chief Inspector Alex Gammampila, who is leading the Met investigation, urged anyone with information to come forward.

He said: "Our thoughts remain with the victim's family at this hugely difficult time. We cannot begin to imagine what they are going through.

"We understand that this incident will be distressing to the local community. My officers continue to work at pace to unpick the events that unfolded and to apprehend those responsible."
