The detainee, who is a 21-year-old man, was arrested at around 11.15pm on Sunday 18 July 2021 following a fight in Lowfield Street the previous evening. He remains in custody as enquiries continue. The assault took place after a Nissan Qashqai collided with roadside furniture at around 6pm. The two occupants then got out of the vehicle and a fight took place. A 26-year-old man from Erith sustained an injury consistent with a stab wound and was taken to a London hospital, where he remains in a stable condition. He was also arrested on suspicion of possessing class A drugs with intent to supply. Two other men from London, aged 39 and 26, were also arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of class A drugs.
