Boy in London died after being stabbed multiple times.

A 16-year-old boy died after he was stabbed a number of times in north-west London by a group who had chased him, police have said.

The Metropolitan police were called to Munster Square in Camden, close to Regent's Park, at about 11.10pm on Monday. The boy was pronunced dead at the scene, with paramedics in attendance, and his next of kin were informed.

DCI Paul Healy said in a statement that police were in the early stages of their murder investigation and appealed for members of the public to "do the rigth thing and speak to us", with no arrests yet made.

"We believe the victim was chased around the square by a number of suspects prior to being stabbed a number of times," he said. "The suspects made off in a vehicle which was discovered burnt out nearby. Another vehicle believed to be involved in the incident was also found burnt out some distance away."

At the scene on Tuesday afternoon next to Munster Square, which sits in the middle of a number of tall council blocks, a large police cordon remained in place and stretched across a number of nearby roads. Residents said the cordon was so large because the boy had been chased.

A resident, Rosanara Begum, told the Evening Standard: "The boy was running away from them, Then we saw the two boys holding him and the other one stabbing him"

"As soons as I heard: 'Help me, help me', I was on the phone to the ambulance. He was bleending a lot. The attackers were skinny and just looked like teenagers. They were running off and they were screaming and laughing."

Her daughter added: "We saw three boys all wearing hoods all covered in black, the middle one had a long black, marchete-type knife. It was really long".
