Four people have been arrested in connection with the death of a teenage boy in Brockley, south London.
Police were called to reports of a fight in St Norbet Road, at about 15:12 on Saturday, 26 September.
However, when police arrived they found a car that had collided with a lamp post.
A 17-year-old boy was taken to a south London hospital in a critical condition. He was pronounced dead in hospital at 17:23.
The other two men suffered minor cuts to their hands.
Next of kin have been informed and formal identification is scheduled to take place in due course.

We are still trying to understand the sequence of events and it is vital that those who know what may have happened come forward and assist us with our inquiry."
