Police have launched a murder inquiry after a 15-year-old boy was stabbed to death in a park in South London .

The Met Police said officers were called to Ashburton Park in Croydon shortly after 19:00 GMT on Thursday.

The Boy was given First Aid before The Ambulance service arrived but he was pronounced dead at The Scene .

The death is the 29th killing of a teenager in London in 2021 - equalling The Peak year for homicides of teenagers in the capital of 2008.

Police said The Victim 's family have been informed but formal identification has not yet taken place.

A post-mortem examination will be held later.

Met Police Commander Alex Murray said: " I Am deeply saddened by every single homicide this year, and greatly concerned by those that have been teenage killings. Each one is a tragedy leaving behind heartbroken families and distressed communities. "
