A murder investigation has been launched after a man was fatally stabbed in Harrow.
It comes after police were called to Sussex Road just before 4.40pm on October 30 by the London Ambulance Service with reports of a man injured at an address.
At the scene, a 48-year-old man was found with knife wounds.
He was taken to hospital where he later died at 2.35pm on October 31.
His family has been notified and a post-mortem examination will be scheduled in due course.
A 37-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after he was taken to hospital for treatment for minor injuries.
He remains in custody at a north London police station.
Det Insp Luke Hampton said: “This is a complex scene with multiple people living inside the address.
"We have made an arrest and our enquiries to establish the full circumstances are ongoing.
