Police have released CCTV footage of a married father-of-two being repeatedly stabbed in London.

The 50-year-old was stabbed 10 times after being approached from behind as he walked home alone after a night out.

Scotland Yard, who are treating the incident as attempted murder, released the footage in an appeal for witnesses as officers are yet to make any arrests.

The victim was attacked at around 9.45pm in Pelham Avenue on October 28.

He survived the attack despite his lung being punctured. He also suffered knife wounds to his chest, stomach, liver and bowel.

The suspect was seen running towards Denham Way, and is described as aged 20-30.

He was wearing a dark hooded top and light trousers.

Anyone with information should call Dagenham CID on 0203 276 1096 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
