A MURDER investigation has been launched after a woman was brutally stabbed to death at a flat.
The 45-year-old victim was found with injuries after police rushed to an address in Enfield, north London, at around 7pm on Saturday.
Met Police officers as well as London Ambulance Service and London’s Air Ambulance were in attendance to help treat the woman.
Tragically, despite their best efforts, she was pronounced dead at the scene.
Her next of kin has been informed and is being supported by specialist officers, police said.
No arrests have yet been made following the horrific attack.
Detective Chief Inspector Neil John, from the Metropolitan Police who is leading the investigation, said: “Our thoughts are with the victim’s family at this difficult time.
“As our investigation continues there will be an increased police presence in the area, and a crime scene remains in place.
“We understand this will be very distressing to the local community and anyone who has concerns can speak to local officers.
“To aid us with our investigation, I would like to appeal to the public for information. We are particularly interested in talking to anyone who was driving through Ayley Croft between 1830hrs and 1930hrs that may have dashcam footage.
“To share footage or any other information, no matter how insignificant you believe it may be, please call 101, referencing CAD 5741/19APRIL.”
Detective Chief Superintendent Caroline Haines, Borough Commander who oversees policing for Enfield, said: “We understand the concern that this will cause local residents. Neighbourhood officers will be working alongside specialist officers in the coming days to progress the investigation and support the local community.
“Please contact officers if you have any information or any concerns.”
