Police said they were called to an assault in Rylett Road, west London, just before 2pm on Wednesday and found the man with a stab wound to the torso.

Six people have been arrested in connection with the incident.

A 30-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder and is currently in custody at a central London police station.
