A man walked half a block before he realised he’d been stabbed in a Romford underpass in the early hours of this morning.

The man was attacked in the North Street underpass around 4.15am, continuing to walk a few hundred metres into a nearby mini cab office before realising what had happened.

Staff at Star Mini Cabs in North Street called ambulance services who took the victim to an east London hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Police have now urged anyone with information to call Romford Police Station on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
