Boy, 15, is one of SIX people stabbed at Notting Hill Carnival as police arrest 100 for carrying drugs and knives and 71 revellers are taken to hospital (carnival photos)
Festival organisers will hope for a better day two after yesterday's logistical nightmare for medics in West London tasked with treating 411 patients and taking 71 to hospital. Officers arrested 105 people - including 24 for carrying a knife and 74 for possessing drugs - at the biggest festival (pictured below) in Europe. They attended five stabbings (scene of one top) involving six males. A 15-year-old boy was in a critical condition after he was stabbed in Wornington Road but police now say he has stabilised. A 14-year-old boy was arrested on suspicion of GBH. Two teenage boys - 15 and 16 - suffered stab wounds at Ladbroke Grove around 5.10pm yesterday. On top of the drug and knife arrests, police also detained four people for sexual offenses, two for GBH and nine for ABH.
