Four people stabbed to death in Bermondsey
Four people have been found stabbed to death at a home in Bermondsey in the early hours of this morning.
Police were called at around 1.40am today to reports of a disturbance at a residential address in Delaford Road.
Officers attended and forced entry. Inside, they found four people suffering what are believed to be stab injuries.
Despite the efforts of emergency services, all four people – three women and a man – were pronounced dead at the scene.
Officers are in the process of contacting next of kin. Post-mortem examinations will be arranged in due course.
A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder and taken to a South London police station where he remains in custody.
Detectives from Specialist Crime are investigating.
It is thought that all five people were known to each other.
Enquiries continue to establish the circumstances.
