Faridon Alizada, 18, from Bexley, south-east London, was one of three teenagers attacked in Verona House, a tower block in Erith, early on Saturday morning.

He died from three stab wounds to the chest, a post-mortem examination revealed. Two men, aged 31 and 41, are being questioned by police over the killing.

Of the two other teenagers also injured in the attack, one is seriously hurt. He remains at the Royal London hospital in a stable condition.

They were found in a high-rise block in a flat described by neighbours as a "crack den".

Residents said the victims were believed to be three young Somali men who lived there.

Police said the stabbing followed a row with suspects who then fled.

One neighbour said: "There was always a lot of stuff going on there with drugs. It's been going on for months. Someone has been running a crack den out of there.

"They were always throwing needles out of the window and there was always banging coming from inside."

Police arrested two men over the attack who are being held at a south London police station.
