A teenager who was murdered in a suspected fight in west London has been named as Simarjeet Singh Nangpal.
The 17-year-old died at the scene having been found with stab injuries after police responded to reports of a fight in Burket Close, in Hounslow, west London at 12.15am on Wednesday.
Four men – aged 21, 27, 31 and 71 – remain in custody after being arrested on suspicion of murder in connection with the incident, the Metropolitan Police said.
The four suspects were arrested at the scene and two of the men were initially taken to hospital due to injuries they sustained before the police arrived.
They have since been discharged and all four suspects remain in police custody.
Simarjeet’s family continue to be supported by specialist officers, the force said.
Detective Superintendent Figo Forouzan said: “Our thoughts remain with Simarjeet’s family at this extremely difficult time. No family should have to go through what they are experiencing.
This incident will undoubtedly cause wider concern, and I want to reassure the community that we will do everything in our power to find those responsible— Detective Superintendent Figo Forouzan
