Three men have been arrested over the murder of a young man who was stabbed to death during a ‘fight’ in a west London street.
Patrick Oyeri, was stabbed in the liver when two groups of men allegedly started fighting in Rosebery Road, in Hounslow, on September 4.
Police had been called to reports of a fight between two groups of people.
An 18-year-old man from Hounslow, a 24-year-old man from Hounslow, and a 23-year-old man from Acton were arrested on Tuesday, the Met Police said.
All three men are in custody at a south London police station.
Police said the groups had dispersed by the time they arrived at the scene at 3.35pm.
Paramedics desperately tried to save Mr Oyeri following the attack at 3.35pm, but he was pronounced dead at the scene about 40 minutes later, police said.
A London Air Ambulance was also called.
A post-mortem examination gave the cause of death as a stab wound to the liver.
