This is the moment a group of youths started brawling in the street around the time that two teenage girls aged 16 and 17 were stabbed.
Five youngsters were seen on CCTV walking down the backstreet in West Norwood, South London, when they were attacked by another group off camera yesterday afternoon - but it is unclear if the two incidents are linked.
One youth lashed out at an unseen rival, prompting friends to get involved who were seen punching and kicking out at others just out of shot as onlookers watched.
The older girl was taken to hospital by air ambulance which landed on the roof of a nearby B&Q. Her condition was initially life threatening but she is now serious but stable. The younger girl did not suffer life-threatening injuries.
