Police were called by paramedics to Shepard House in the Winstanley Estate just after 6pm last night to reports of a stabbing.

There they found a man in his thirties suffering from a stab wound. He later died from his injuries at the scene.

Two other men were also found nearby suffering stab injuries.

They were taken to a south London hospital, where they remain with non life-threatening injuries.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman this morning said officers were in the process of informing the dead man's next of kin.

Formal identification and a post examination are still to take place.

One woman, who did not wish to be named and lives in the block behind Shepard House, said: "There's been a lot of violence there.

"I've heard people yelling, banging on doors.

"Last month there was someone banging on a door shouting 'let me in, let me in,' lots of aggression.

"I don't feel safe around there."

Detectives from the Homicide and Major Crime Command are investigating the stabbing.

Leader of Wandsworth Council Ravi Govindia said: "This was a truly dreadful incident that has cause great shock and upset on the estate.

"Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families of all the victims but  especially to the relatives and friends of the man whose life was so tragically taken.

"I would urge anyone with information to come forward and tell the police what they know.

"As a community we must come together, support each other and do all we can to tackle the scourge of knife crime."

No arrests have been made and enquiries are ongoing, the Met spokesman said.

Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101 or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or via crimestoppers-uk.org.
