Detectives investigating the murder of Tyreece Scott in Hounslow have made two arrests.

An investigation was launched after Tyreece was found with a stab wound in Grove Road at around 01:15hrs on Tuesday, 16 January.

Emergency services provided emergency first aid, however the 24-year-old sadly died at the scene a short time later.

Detectives have been working around the clock to identify those responsible.

Detective Inspector Ollie Stride, from the investigation team, said: "This is a significant development, however our investigation continues and we are still keen to hear from any witnesses who have not yet spoken to us."
