A double stabbing in Bromley has led to road closures and significant emergency service activity on Burnt Ash Lane today (Thursday, September 26).

Emergency services rushed to the scene around 11.35am after receiving reports of two men being attacked. Both men were treated on-site by paramedics, with one man being transported to a major trauma centre as a priority, while the second was also taken to the hospital.

A spokesperson from London Ambulance Service said: “We were called at 11.35am today to reports of a stabbing in Burnt Ash Lane, Bromley. We sent resources to the scene, including ambulance crews, a paramedic in a fast response car, and an incident response officer. Our crews treated two male patients at the scene before taking them to London major trauma centres, one as a priority.”

Police have closed Burnt Ash Lane, with heavy traffic reported in the area. London buses 126 and 261 are being diverted as a result of the road closure.

Photos from the scene show police tape cordoning off the Toyota Garage and a second crime scene across the road near Pike Close. Forensics teams have been seen working at the scene as police continue their investigation.

Burnt Ash Lane has since reopened, but emergency services remain at the location. There has been no official update on the condition of the two victims.

Anyone with information or images of the incident is urged to contact the police.
