Pimlico Fatal Stabbing: Teenager Named

A teenager, who died after being stabbed in Pimlico, central London, has been named as Hani Abou El-Kheir.

Officers were called to Lupus Street at 6.50pm on Sunday where they found a 16-year-old who had been stabbed. Witnesses heard him screaming for his life.

The victim was taken to a south London hospital but died from his injuries at 8.45pm.

Family friend Mahmoud Abosiad said: "He was a lovely boy. He did not deserve to end up on a slab."

Mohammed Alzubaidi, 49, from nearby Peabody Close, said his friend had witnessed a gang made up of black and white teenagers carrying out the attack.

The street has been cordoned off by police

"He said they were carrying knives, some of them with wide swords. He said the victim was screaming and trying to get away."

Mr Alzubaidi's friend told him the gang had scattered and run off in different directions.

The victim's mother Pauline Hickey, who lives 100 yards from the scene, did not want to comment this morning. But an unidentified man said at the family home: "She's broken-hearted."

The scene of the attack is close to Pimlico Underground station and is bordered by many council estates.

A 58-year-old local resident, who did not want to be named, said there had been two murders in nearby Gloucester Street in recent years and a stabbing of a boy outside a row of shops in Lupus Street before Christmas.

"The violence that has started to occur around here is something else, it is frightening for all the residents. You used to be able to walk around at night but I am starting to be very wary, especially at night-time," she said.

No arrests have been made so far. Police have launched a murder investigation.

A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police said: "We must retain an open mind re the circumstances of the incident and any motive at this early stage."

Anyone with any information can call police on 101 or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
