Footage from the incident appeared to show someone being treated by paramedics on the busy street."
"Streatham resident Becky Hill described how she saw a young man bleeding. She said: There was blood on their neck and at the scene. They were then transported into the back of the ambulance, but the medical staff. It looked like about five of them were working on them for quite a while directly outside of the door. She continued: A person that was either at Starbucks or nearby stopped to help the person who was injured."
"Ms Hill explained that police cordoned off an area near a Starbucks and Marks and Spencer and a helicopter could be heard circling nearby. There has been no evidence so far to suggest the incident involved a customer at either store.
