A crime scene remains in place on Norman Road. No arrests have been made, the Met Police said.

Dt Ch Insp Neil John appealed for the "large group of people there at the time" to come forward.

Dt Ch Sup Caroline Haines, head of policing in Haringey, said: "My thoughts are with Tyler's family following the tragic loss of another young life.

"You will continue to see an enhanced police presence in the area, and I would encourage local residents to speak with my officers if they have any concerns."
