LONDON (Reuters) - A teenager was stabbed to death during a gang fight in a bar in the early hours of Saturday that left three other men with serious stab wounds, police said.
The 18-year-old was fatally wounded during the "large disturbance" at the Metro Bar in Station Road, Sidcup, Kent, Scotland Yard said.
A 21-year-old was stabbed in the neck, a 16-year-old in the chest and a third man, aged in his late teens or early 20s, sustained stab wounds to his hand.
All of the injuries are "serious" but not life threatening, police said in a statement.
A fifth man, 21, was taken to hospital suffering facial injuries. He was later discharged, and has been arrested on suspicion of murder.
Knife crime has blighted London in recent months.
Earlier this month, a man was knifed to death on Oxford Street, one of the busiest shopping areas in the country, and 16-year-old Jimmy Mizen died after his throat was slashed after declining to become involved in a fight with a man in a bakery.

They have just released the name on the radio & the lad that died is Rob Knox from the Half Blood Prince Robert Knox (VIII) He plays Marcus Belby.
ETA: I've yet to find the name released on other news reports, so I might have the name wrong... but, it's still sad no matter who the child that died was.
This is yet another teen stabbing, in recent weeks, but my heart goes out to this lads family and the others that have lost young 'uns recently.

We don't have as much gun crime as some other places but this knife-stuff seems to be 14-22 yr olds.... (in fact 22 might be a bit high...)

^^ Yeah I don't remember him either... but if he's in the film he must play a semi-relevant part in the book...

That is terrible!
The kids in London are out of control...and everyone is afraid of them.
My sister sees stuff happen all the time and she literally has to turn her head and ignore it. If you get involved or talk to these kids, your bashed.

Harry Potter Actor Killed Outside a London Pub
Harry Potter Actor Killed Outside a London Pub
Monday May 26, 2008

PA Photos Buzz up!
Rob Knox who plays the role of student Marcus Belby in the upcoming Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince was fatally stabbed outside Metro bar in Southeast London on Saturday morning.
The BBC reported that Knox, 18, was allegedly trying to defend his younger brother Jamie from a man armed with knives.
According to the BBC, as of Monday, police were still questioning a 21-year-old male suspect.
"Rob was kind and thoughtful and would always help out others- he would always spent his last penny on other people instead of himself," Knox's parents, Sally and Colin said in a statement Sunday. "The life and soul of the party, he was very outgoing loved sports and would always strike up conversation with people.
"He was respectful to others and adored by all his family and friends. He was an asset to the family."
Knox had just completed filming of the latest Harry Potter (which is due to be released in November) and had signed on to appear in Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, the seventh film in the franchise. He had been acting since the age of 11.
"We are all shocked and saddened by this news and at this time our sympathies are with his family," Warner Bros. Studio, which produces Harry Potter movies said in a statement.
