Three men have been arrested on suspicion of murdering a 16-year-old boy in east London last week.

Ashley Hedger, of Upton Park, was stabbed to death on Plashet Road, E13, on Friday afternoon.

A police spokesperson has said he was with four male youths, two white and two black, having got off a bus travelling east.

It is believed the stabbing took place after an altercation outside a fish and chip shop.

The three men are being held in custody at separate London police stations, and no charges have yet been brought against them.
