A murder investigation has been launched after a stabbing victim died in north-west London.

Officers were called to reports of an attack in Linacre Road, Willesden Green, at around 4.16am on Saturday.

A man found with serious injuries was pronounced dead on the way to hospital.

No arrests have been made.

Road closures are in place around the scene, a Metropolitan Police spokesman said on Saturday.

They added: “While formal identification has yet to take place, officers are confident the victim was a male in his 30s.

“Officers are working to identify his next of kin and they will be supported by specialist officers.”

Police, paramedics and air ambulance crews had attended the scene.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Met giving the reference 1013/28DEC, or they can call Crimestoppers to remain anonymous.
