Two teenagers have been charged after a man was left fighting for his life after a stabbing in Mottingham.
The victim was trying to prevent his moped from being stolen before the attack and Greenwich MPS say two teenagers, both 17, have now been charged in relation to the investigation.
Detectives investigating a stabbing on #Crossmead last Tuesday afternoon have charged two 17-year-olds in connection with the investigation.

Officers were called to Crossmead at around 5pm on Tuesday (April 9) after reports of an assault.
A man, believed to be in his late 20s, was found suffering from a stab injury.
No update have been given on his condition, but he was believed to be "critical" last week.
News Shopper has contacted Greenwich Police on more information about the teenagers and the crime they have been charged with.
A Met spokesman said last week: "At this early stage, officers believe that the man was stabbed during a robbery in which his moped was stolen.
"Two people have been arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm. They have been taken to a south London police station where they remain in custody.
"Anyone with information is asked to contact the South East Command Unit via 101 quoting reference 5346/9Apr."
