Detectives have arrested a second man in connection with the murder of Christopher Foster who was stabbed while smoking outside a pub in south London.

The man, 30, as has been bailed to a date in late January pending further enquiries, Scotland Yard said. Mr Foster was attacked last month by a gang in what police believe was a case of mistaken identity.

Mr Foster was attacked in Borough High Street by a hooded gang who were brandishing baseball bats and at least one knife.

Officers are continuing to appeal for witnesses and information.
