The 24-year-old NHS worker was stabbed in Freemasons Road, near the junction with Kerry Close, at around 10.25pm on Sunday, April 26.

Police say the attack was unprovoked and believe those involved left the scene in a stolen silver Dodge Caliber that was abandoned at about 10.30pm in Lincoln Road, Plaistow, after driving through the no entry sign from Cumberland Road.

This car had been stolen in Dagenham on April 16 and was on cloned plates when it was recovered.

Officers say it it is distinctive as it has a temporary wheel on the front passenger side.
