Two teenagers stabbed to death in double murder ‘at house party’

Two teenage boys aged 17 have died after a stabbing at a house party in a ‘quiet neighbourhood’, police said.

Neighbours this morning spoke of their horror at the double murder at around midnight last night in Archford Croft, in the Emerson Valley area of Milton Keynes. One boy is understood to have died at the scene while another died a short time later in hospital. Police said two men were also injured in the incident and have been left with serious injuries, not believed to be life threatening.

A neighbour, who did not want to be named, said: ‘Apparently there was some sort of party going on at the house and a group of young people arrived and got into the house. I don’t think the boys knew each other. ‘Soon after midnight loads of police cars and ambulances arrived in the road and there were blue lights everywhere.

‘I have been told that the boys who died were not related in any way and that the murders look a bit like gang violence. ‘This is normally a nice quiet neighbourhood and hardly anything ever happens here. ‘I just can’t believe that two teenage boys have been viciously murdered in our street.’ Post-mortem examinations are due to take place at Milton Keynes Hospital today but police have confirmed that both boys had stab wounds.
