A man has been rushed to hospital after he was stabbed outside a south London Sainsbury’s this evening.

Police and paramedics were called to Garratt Lane in Wandsworth just before 8.45pm following reports of the stabbing.

One person has been taken to hospital, police said. His age and condition are not currently known.

A photo from the scene showed a line of police tape cordoning off an area outside the supermarket.

One resident, who asked not to be named, told the Standard around three police cars were first on the scene, swiftly followed by more.

He said: “I saw several police cars and an ambulance.

“They had already cordoned off the area and some clothes and a rucksack were lying on the ground.

“There was a group of people nearby that was talking to a police officer while a lady was nervously walking up and down the area, followed by a police officer that was keeping her outside the perimeter.”

No arrests have been made so far, police said.
