Boy stabbed to death in 'targeted' broad daylight attack in leafy Chiltern Hills town


A teenager aged 17 has been stabbed to death in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, in what police are treating as a “targeted attack”. A second 17-year-old was also injured in the Sunday evening attack, although but his wounds are not believed to be life-threatening.

Police are hunting for four suspects, all of whom had their faces covered at the time of the attack.

No arrests have been so far.

Detective Superintendent Kevin Brown, of Thames Valley Police, said: “We are in the very early stages of this investigation and details as to what has happened are currently very limited.

“The incident occurred between around 7pm and 7.30pm close to the main car parks of Easton Street at a time when members of the public would have been using the car parks, attending the theatre or preparing for a night out in the town.

“It is therefore very important that anyone who was close to Easton Street at this time and saw something unusual or out of the ordinary or indeed knows anything about this incident gets in touch as soon as possible.”
