One killed as Notting Hill Carnival marred by serious stabbings and violence - Sky News

A man has been killed and there have been a number of serious stabbings and other violence at the Notting Hill Carnival, police have said.

A Section 60 order was imposed in and around the area of the carnival at 9.24pm on Monday until 1am on Tuesday.

It allows police to stop and search someone without suspicion.

The man who died was stabbed, officers said.

It comes on the final day of the west London carnival, which has been enjoying its first year back since the pandemic.

Close to a million people were at the event for Adults Day on Monday, with the streets once again filled with the boom of sound systems and dancers in extravagant costumes.
