A man who was stabbed yesterday afternoon is believed to have been chased through a park before being attacked.

Three men pursued the 26-year-old through Pymmes Park, in Edmonton before he was stabbed in the arm, legs and back in Sweet Briar Walk.

Two of the three men are described as black, in their early 20s, and were wearing dark clothing at the time.

Detective Constable Andrew Reason from Enfield CID said: "This was a busy time of day with schoolchildren and shoppers out in the area at the time.  Anyone who saw the incident or who has information about the incident should call Enfield CID on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111."

The man was taken to an east London hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
