Officers attended the scene alongside the London Ambulance Service who treated a man for stab injuries.

It is understood that his injuries are not life-threatening.

Streatham High Street was shut in both directions on Tuesday afternoon as road closures remained in place after the attack.

The Met Police said there have been no arrests and enquiries are ongoing.

It says changes are needed in the wake of 21 collisions in three years near the Gracefield Gardens junction. Ten involved pedestrians, including two of the three that resulted in serious injuries.

But opponents warn that the closure of the side street will displace vehicles onto neighbouring roads and impede access to a health centre.

Mr Blake will be transferred from the firearms unit to another department within the force, it is understood.

The marksman stood trial after shooting Kaba, an unarmed Black man, through the front windscreen of an Audi Q8 as the 24-year-old tried to smash and ram his way through police cars in Streatham, southeast London, two years ago.

He was cleared of murder by a jury in just over three hours at the Old Bailey in October.

Father-to-be Kaba was a “core member” of the notorious ’67 gang’ in Brixton Hill, with a history of criminal activity including a jail term for possession of a firearm.

He was the prime suspect in a shooting five days earlier, when Brandon Malutshi was shot in both legs after attending the Oval Space nightclub in Hackney.

An Old Bailey trial heard how a gun was smuggled into the club in a bag, Kaba was seen “moving mad” around the dancefloor, and then he pulled out the firearm.

Mr Khan was put under pressure at the London Assembly on Thursday for being “too sympathetic” towards the drill rapper, 24, whose violent past was revealed after Sgt Blake was last month found not guilty of his murder.

It emerged that Kaba was a “core member” of the notorious “67 gang” in Brixton Hill, with a history of criminal activity including a jail term for possession of a firearm.

The upgrades will take place between Crystal Palace, Tulse Hill and Peckham Rye, closing some London Overground routes as well as popular railway lines.

Similar works were previously completed between East Croydon and London Victoria in 2022, more than halving the number of signalling delays between the stations.

During the seven-day, half-term closure Thameslink passengers travelling between Herne Hill, Wimbledon and Sutton are advised to use Buses or alternative rail routes.
