London - A teenager was stabbed to death during a fight involving at least four people early on Saturday in Kent, police said.
The 19-year-old was fatally wounded in the altercation in Sidcup, Scotland Yard said.
Two men aged 21 and a 16-year-old boy were being treated in hospital. One of the men and the teenager suffered stab wounds, while the other man sustained a facial injury.
One man had been arrested on suspicion of murder. Knife crime had blighted London in recent months.
Earlier this month, a man was knifed to death on Oxford Street, one of the busiest shopping areas in the country, and 16-year-old Jimmy Mizen died after his throat was slashed after declining to become involved in a fight with a man in a bakery.
