Police in the City of London are looking for a knife today after a man was stabbed to death near St. Paul’s Cathedral last night.
The victim was taken by paramedics at the scene of the accident in the center of the capital last night, after he was found seriously injured shortly before midnight.
He was taken by ambulance to Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel, but died of his injuries, and detectives are now trying to find out what happened.
