Police hunt O2 stabbing suspect
Images of a man police want to speak to about a stabbing at The O2 last November have been released.
The pictures were taken from CCTV cameras at the venue and show a man fleeing after violence erupted at the Urban Music Awards at the Indigo2 on November 15.
DCI Mark Stockford of Greenwich police is leading the investigation. He said: "This was a shocking attack during a high profile event attended by many people.
"We have spoken to a large number of witnesses, but I am convinced there are still people out there with information who haven't yet come forward. I appeal to them to get in touch with us.
"In particular, I want to hear from anyone who recognises the man pictured, seen running from the scene. He has not yet been identified and may have information vital to the investigation."
Police and ambulance crews were called to The O2 at around 10.10pm on Saturday, November 15, after trouble kicked off at the awards.
A 27-year-old man was stabbed in the neck during the disturbance, while a 22-year-old man suffered minor injuries.
A 21-year-old man was arrested at the scene and was released on bail.
Anyone with information should contact Greenwich CID on 0208 284 9591 or 0208 284 9445. If they wish to remain anonymous call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
