Police release photo of man they wish to identify in connection with Clapham stabbings
Police have released an image of a man they wish to speak to in connection with the homophobic stabbings of two men outside an LGBTQ+ venue in Clapham.
Two men, aged in their 20s and 30s, were standing outside the Two Brewers when a man approached them and attacked them with a knife before running away on the evening of 13 August.
They were both taken to hospital for treatment and have since been discharged. The incident is being treated as a homophobic attack by the Met and no one has been arrested yet.
Investigators said the image released was “taken from outside the venue at the time of the attack”. “I am asking the public to look at this image and see if they recognise this individual – it is vital that we identify and locate him as soon as possible,” Detective Chief Inspector Jivan Saib, from the Met Police’s Central South Command Unit, said.
