A man has died after being stabbed near a restaurant in Waterloo on Saturday.

Adrian Keise, 32 from Lambeth, was found near flats in Frazier Street after police were called to reports of a stabbing close to Cubana restaurant on Lower Marsh at 2.15am on Saturday.

London Ambulance Service paramedics treated him at the scene, and he was taken to hospital but died a short time later.

Homicide detectives from the Met's Specialist Crime Command are investigating and a crime scene is in place. There have been no arrests.

Detective Chief Inspector Brian Howie said: "Our investigation is moving at pace and we have been carrying out a number of enquiries, including a review of CCTV from the area and a forensic examination of the scene.

"We now believe Adrian was involved in an altercation which started near to the Cubana Restaurant before moving down Lower Marsh Street.

"I am sure that there were people who witnessed what happened who haven't yet spoken to us about what they saw.

“You may have thought it was insignificant at the time, but it could be vital in helping us to identify those responsible."
