[Another amazing achievement brought to us by infamous "Religion of Peace". Curiously, the perp's and the victim's names have both been omitted making it so we cannot make any association of a religion and these knife crimes. TM]

Two men have been stabbed to death in London, bringing the fatal stabbing toll in the capital to 40 this year.
A 20-year-old man was found fatally wounded on Roth Walk, near Finsbury Park, north London at around 3am on Saturday, Scotland Yard said.
Medical staff fought to save his life but he was confirmed dead at the scene.
Another man, aged 21, was also found with stab wounds nearby and was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Officers have established that the victim was involved in a fight with a man in the street.
Detectives from the Homicide and Major Crime Command are investigating.
A 31-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of murder on Friday, 20 April and taken to a south London police station where he remains in custody.
It comes amid warnings from top trauma surgeon Martin Griffiths who has predicted a summer of 'carnage' as youth violence rises across the capital.
He warns that the warmer weather will further increase the bloodshed among young people.
Commenting on the wave of violence Mr Griffiths told the Times: 'I'm a trauma surgeon, not a paediatric surgeon. We're having to use the skill set that we use to look after adult trauma injuries for kids.
'That was never part of the deal. But we look after children now — that's what we do. Welcome to the new normal.'
He added: 'We handled a terrorist attack like we handle a busy Saturday night.
'That's a sobering thought.' he said, referring to the London Bridge terrorist attack on June 3 last year.
'Every day an ambulance rolls up with a kid who has been stabbed. That can't be right. We're not at war.'
