A moped rider was stabbed less than two hours after he had fought off thugs who were trying to steal his bike in the same road.
Two men were attacked by thieves attempting to snatch their mopeds in Chamberlayne Road, Brent , at around 10pm on Wednesday night (April 4).
Police said a 26-year-old victim suffered minor injuries as he grappled with the thugs who were trying to rob him.
A second victim was unhurt during the attempted robbery and left the scene after speaking to police, but just 90 minutes later he was stabbed further along the same road.
