Man Fatally Stabbed at NW6 Home in Shocking Morning Attack
Police and emergency crews were scrambled early Tuesday morning after a brutal stabbing at a residential address in London’s NW6.
Tragic Scene at Gable Lodge
Just before 10am on 20 December, officers, London’s Air Ambulance, and the London Ambulance Service responded to reports of a stabbing at Gable Lodge, Mowbray Road. There, they found 44-year-old Andre Foster, aka Andre Jacks, suffering from stab wounds.
Despite frantic efforts by medics, Andre was pronounced dead at the scene. His family has been informed and is receiving specialist support.
Police Hunt Witnesses and Urge Public to Speak Up

“We believe some witnesses left before officers arrived. These people can hold vital clues. I urge them to come forward immediately.”
“If you saw someone rushing from Gable Lodge or know who is responsible, please do the right thing and contact us.”
