A teenager has been arrested in connection with stabbings which took place on a night of violence in Hyde Park .

The 18-year-old was arrested on Wednesday (July 27) morning on suspicion of attempted murder.

He was taken to a west London police station, where he remains in custody.

A police officer and two other people were stabbed in the park on last Tuesday (July 19) as a water fight on the hottest day of the year descended into violence.

Police said five officers had been hurt, including one who was struck by a bottle.

Detectives, who say things got nasty when some of the crowd tried to set up a sound system, have released several images of people they wish to speak to in relation to the disorder.

They have also appealed for help identifying suspects after a nearby McDonald's at Marble Arched was stormed on the same night, with people seen helping themselves to food.
