THREE teenagers have been arrested in connection with a stabbing outside a Leytonstone pub.

A 43-year-old man suffered minor injuries in the attack, which happened in an alleyway next to the Bell in the High Road at around 9.45pm on Friday April 8.

His 41-year-old friend also received a small cut to the shoulder in the incident.

Police told the Guardian earlier this month that they were unsure what type of weapon was used, but a blood stained metal pole was found nearby.

Those arrested are three boys aged 16, 17 and 19.

They were seized yesterday.

The Guardian is awaiting further details from police.
