A teenager was stabbed near Highbury Fields yesterday afternoon.

Police were called at about 2.50pm to reports of a knife attack in Fieldway Crescent.

Officers and medics found an 18-year-old man suffering from a stab injury at the scene.

A Met Police spokesperson said: "He was taken to an east London hospital for treatment; his condition is not life-threatening."

No arrests have been made and police are investigating.

Police authorised a borough-wide Section 60 order yesterday evening - giving them enhanced stop and search powers - due to this attack and other "minor skirmishes" involving weapons.

The Section 60 expired at 6am this morning.
