Detectives are searching for a Gucci bag that was stolen from a man who was stabbed to death in south London.

Tyler Roye, 24, died after being knifed near the Arena tram stop in Croydon on 26 February, according to Scotland Yard.

He was found shortly after midnight suffering from stab wounds and was taken to hospital, but died from his injuries at 2.46am.
