Man, 21, Killed In Bar Stabbing

A 21-year-old has been stabbed to death at a bar in north-west London.

The incident happened in front of dozens of customers at the RE bar in Eastcote at around 1.10am on Sunday, 11 October.

The victim, who has been named as Josh Hanson, from Kingsbury in the city, received a stab wound to the neck. He died at the scene.

No arrests have yet been made, and police have asked anyone who was in the bar at the time, to contact them with information.

Detective Chief Inspector Noel McHugh said: "It is believed there would have been around 40 people present at the time of the incident, many of whom left the venue as paramedics worked to save Josh's life. It is imperative these people contact us to let us know what they saw.

"We are also keen to hear from anyone who was in Field End Road area at around 1am Sunday who may have seen or heard anything that they now think might be because of the incident at the RE bar."
