Police have sent mounted police to patrol the streets of Croydon and conducted 'Stop and Searches' across South London in recent days after a wave of stabbings south of the River Thames.
Officers mounted on police horses were pictured riding down London Road near West Croydon station on Saturday evening (February 6), where just hours earlier a 24-year-old man had been found with stab injuries.
That incident was the latest in a wave of stabbings in South London that also witnessed a man in his 20s stabbed in Couldson on Saturday.
