Teenage girl stabbed to death in London(David Bebber/The Times)
The stabbing is the latest in a string of violent acts in LondonA schoolgirl has been stabbed to death in South London, the latest in a string of young knife victims in the capital.
The 15-year-old girl was found with multiple stab wounds in a lift in flats near Waterloo Station. She is believed to have been on her way home from school and was still wearing her school uniform when she was discovered.
A woman and her child discovered the girl’s body was found after calling the lift while returning home.
Police were called and pronounced her dead at the scene in Matheson Lang House, Baylis Road, Southwark. An air ambulance was sent and paramedics reached the flat within four minutes of the call but were unable to revive her.
A spokesman for London Ambulance Service said: “Sadly, despite extensive efforts to resuscitate the patient, she was pronounced dead at the scene.”
A total of 15 young men have been killed in knife and gun attacks since January. In May three teenage boys were killed in incidents involving knives and guns.
Sharon Moore, a neighbour of the victim, said she believed she was from Somalia.
“You think you are fine once you are in the building, this is the last thing you expect… I’m extremely shocked because once I’m in the door and I get in I think I am safe,” she said.
She said residents in the flats were given fobs on Friday as part of measures to tighten up security. “I feel very insecure and afraid for my children and for the other children in the block,” she added.
Victoria Burke, who works at Buffer Bear nursery opposite the block of flats, said: “We’ve never had any trouble around here before. I know there’s a lot of gangs of youths but not to the extent where you would think this would happen.”
Police said that a man in his 30s had been arrested in connection with the incident. A murder inquiry has been opened and the area around the flats has been sealed off. The man was arrested in Lambeth, South London. The killing is not believed to be gang related.
The girl’s family have been informed of her death.

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:
It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
- Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
- Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
- Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
- Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

Oh, and here's some kind of visitor flag counter thingy. Hey, all the cool blogs have one, so I should too. The Visitors Online thingy up at the top doesn't count anything, but it looks neat. It had better, since I paid actual money for it.
