19-year-old man stabbed in critical condition, London

TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - Scotland Yard said the man had suffered a stab wound to the chest while aboard the route 134 bus at Colney Hatch Lane in North Finchley, north London.

Police and the ambulance service were called to reports of a stabbing at 4.40pm.
“He was taken to an east London hospital by Air Ambulance where his condition is currently critical,” the Metropolitan Police said.

No arrests have been reported yet.

Recently also two 17-year-olds were stabbed to death in different parts of England, plunging families into grief and igniting an intense debate about why so many young people are dying, and who is to blame.

After falling for a decade, knife crime is rising in Britain. There were 285 knife killings in the year to March 2018, the most since comparable records began in 1946.

Opposition politicians blame the Conservative government's cuts to police and social programs.

But Prime Minister Theresa May says there is "no direct correlation between certain crimes and police numbers."
