A man stabbed to death in Knightsbridge may have been the victim of a targeted attack, detectives have said.
Three men in their 20s have been arrested in connection with the murder of 24-year-old Blue Stevens, who was found with stab wounds in Seville Street on Wednesday evening.
Two of the men were arrested in Hounslow on 12 July; one on suspicion of conspiracy to murder, and the other on suspicion of murder. The third was arrested on Monday on suspicion of assisting an offender.
Mr Stevens, from Yateley in Hampshire, died at the scene.
Det Ch Sup Christina Jessah said the arrests “mark a significant milestone in this complex and unfolding murder investigation”.
She said detectives were keeping open minds around motive, and they were considering if this “may have been a targeted attack” and there were increased police patrols in the Knightsbridge area as a result.
The incident happened near luxury hotel The Park Tower Knightsbridge but did not involve any guests or staff, according to a Marriott spokesperson.
