Major high street shut down after huge brawl erupts resulting in triple stabbing

Three people have been stabbed and another injured after a brawl in Stratford Broadway in the early hours of Friday.

A Met Police statement said: “Officers attended the scene alongside the London Ambulance Service. “Four men sustained injuries requiring hospital treatment.

“Three men – aged 22, 32 and 36 – were believed to have stab wounds. Their injuries have all been assessed as non-life threatening and non-life changing. A fourth man – aged 26 – was believed to have an injury to his jaw. His condition has also been assessed as non-life threatening and non-life changing.”

Four arrests have been made, and further urgent enquiries are ongoing.

The road is shut in both directions near Stratford Bus Station between A118 Great Eastern Road and A112 Tramway Avenue. Several buses have been rerouted in the area and University of East London Buses warned its students there was “very heavy traffic” in the area. 

It said on social media: “Stratford Broadway is closed in both directions causing very heavy traffic around the area causing our timetable to be running late. Sorry about the delays.”
