A man in his 20s was attacked with a knife in Colindale, north-west London, just before 6pm on Sunday. A woman, also in her 20s, who knew the victim, has been arrested on suspicion of murder. About 40 minutes later, a woman in her 30s was stabbed to death in Brixton, south London. A man was arrested on suspicion of murder and is in custody at a south London police station; investigations are continuing. The two deaths bring the number of murders in London so far this year, for which the Metropolitan police have publicly released details, to around 59.
