Emergency services were called to Dudden Hill Lane at 10:36pm, where Jamal was treated for stab wounds before being rushed to hospital. He tragically died on Thursday, 4 June.
Multiple arrests have been made in connection with the incident. A 15-year-old boy was charged with affray and possession of an offensive weapon, and appeared at Willesden Magistrates’ Court. Additionally, police arrested a 16-year-old and an 18-year-old on suspicion of assault causing grievous bodily harm. The 16-year-old remains in custody, while the 18-year-old has been released on bail.
