Story summary

Thomas Jewitt, 32, died after being attacked on the Central Line platform at Liverpool Street station while returning home from the Notting Hill Carnival on August 30, 2021. Emergency services were called to the scene at around 10:51 pm; Thomas was rushed to the hospital in critical condition and died three days later. Jeremiah Maximo, 38, of Barking, has been charged with grievous bodily harm.

Thomas's family described him as a "fun-loving, caring, and kind" man who always looked out for others and had a successful career in affordable housing. They expressed their disbelief at his untimely death and mentioned he was excited to marry his fiancée next year. Over 630 people were arrested during the Notting Hill Carnival that weekend.

Separately, on September 16, Reece Salmon, 28, was stabbed to death in Clerkenwell, Islington, on Lloyd Baker Street—a residential street with homes valued up to £2.25 million. The victim was taken to the hospital but died the following day. No arrests have been made yet, and a Section 60 order allowing police enhanced powers to stop and search people and vehicles in three parts of London was authorized for September 17-18.
