Renewed Appeals Follow Arrest Of Brixton Murder Suspect

Officers from the Homicide and Serious Crime Command have renewed their appeals to the public for witnesses to a murder in Brixton last year following the arrest of a suspect. Detectives would like to hear from anyone with information about the murder of Lucan Gordon outside the Domino Club in Coldharbour Lane, Brixton, on 19 September.

Mr Gordon, who was 23 and from West Norwood, was fatally stabbed outside the club on 19 September 2008.

The fresh call for information comes as detectives make an arrest in connection with the murder. The suspect, a 32-year-old man, was arrested on suspicion of murder on 9 January 2009.

DCI Cliff Lyons, leading the investigation, said: "Lucan was with friends outside the Domino Club at around 9pm that night when he was subjected to a vicious attack by another man.

"I am still keeping an open mind about the motive for this attack, and still very keen to hear from anyone who was in the area at the time or has any other information.

"All information will of course be treated in the strictest confidence."

Anyone with information is asked to contact the incident room on 020 8721 4961; if you wish to remain anonymous please call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
