A 17-year-old boy has been stabbed to death in north-west London.
Police were called to reports of a disturbance when they found the boy at 0025 BST, close to the junction of Bray Road with Bittacy Hill in Mill Hill.
He had suffered a stab wound to the torso and died soon after being taken to hospital. Eleven males have been arrested over the stabbing and they remain in police custody.
Post-mortem tests will be held later and his next-of-kin have been informed.
'Talked in lyrics'
Several people laid flower tributes for the victim at the scene in Bray Road.
A 16-year-old boy, who knew the victim but did not want to be named, said: He was a very popular boy, everyone knows him. He came from a big family.
We would never expect any of these things to happen. It's not a bad area.
Another friend, a girl who also did not want to be named, said: He never stopped spitting lyrics, he always talked in lyrics, he never talked properly.
It's just a shock that it's all happened here.
