Seven men have been arrested after four men were stabbed amid reports of a 'machete-wielding gang' running through Bromley High Street today.
Emergency services attended the scene at around 2.15pm and found four men who had been stabbed.
All four were rushed to hospital by the London Ambulance Service, with three being treated for non-life-threatening injuries. One remains in critical condition.
The high street is currently closed both ways, from Ringers Road to Ethelbert Road, with a police cordon in place.
The seven men arrested remain in custody. Police said there is not currently believed to be any wider threat to the public.
An air ambulance, the London Fire Brigade and the Met Police were dispatched to the incident.
Bromley is one of the largest boroughs in the capital city and is known for its sprawling green spaces and is generally considered a middle-class area.
It is also ranked among the top 10 safest boroughs in the capital city with 67 per 1,000 people, CrimeRate reported.
Earlier this year, data also revealed it was the most expensive area in southeast London to buy a property.

> It would be easy enough to retrieve any knives in those bins with a magnet on a line. <
The scenario: A Muslim is holding a magnet on a line, and is standing next to a bin.
British cop:
“What’s this all about?”
Muslim:
“I am performing an Islamic religious ceremony.”
British cop:
“Sorry to have bothered you! My deepest apologies.”
British cop then walks off.
Yep , you are the Third World

How do you go stabbing with a machete?
Any Muslims seen with big a** magnets?.
What better country to go medieval in??
In a nutshell.
Remember knives are ok if you are a migrant. No mention of machete violence!
I was thinking the same. Latin style machetes have somewhat of a point but definitely not great for stabbing. Bolos and dukus are out too. The only machete that I have seen good for stabbing would be the Condor Burmese Hunter. Even though called a machete, it looks more like a small sword.
No. Dutch Irish......their fathers were from Wales.
Although I’m American, I’ve walked Bromley’s High Street many times. It is nice and previously always appeared safe. You would never confuse it with, say Birmingham.
Birmingham?
England or Alabama?..............LOL!............
Birmingham Blues - ELO

They do. No knives over 4 inches.

—I reckon it will fall off the Top Ten Safest list.
LOL
“no pics or names tells me everything I need to know about who they are.”
Yes, it HAS to be a religion of peace alert.
Lemme guess, the surnames were something like Lennon, Harrison, McCartney, Starke, Clapton, Baker, Bruce or some such right?
