A Romford man has been charged after two teenagers were stabbed in Leyton.
Darrel Ekema, 18, of Burchwall Close, Romford has been charged with wounding with intent and possession of a bladed article in a public place.
He is due to appear at Snaresbrook Crown Court on February 26.
It comes after police were called to High Road at 8.45pm on January 27, where they later found an 18-year-old with stab injuries in Littleton Road and a 17-year-old also suffering from stab wounds.
The pair were taken to hospital where they were both arrested on suspicion of causing GBH and affray.
