Investigators are seeking to identify a man after two men were stabbed in a homophobic attack outside a south London nightclub.

The Metropolitan Police has released an image of a man taken from outside the venue at the time of the attack.
The force said it is treating the stabbings as homophobic.
The Met said the incident happened at about 22:15 BST as the two men stood outside the nightclub.
The were approached by a man who attacked them with a knife before running away.
No arrests have been made so far, and police inquiries are ongoing.
The men have since been sent home from hospital.
Det Ch Insp Jivan Saib from the Met’s Central South Command Unit, who is leading the investigation, said: “I am asking the public to look at this image and see if they recognise this individual – it is vital that we identify and locate him as soon as possible.”
PC Hayley Jones, the Met’s LGBT+ Community Liaison Officer for Lambeth and Southwark said: “We understand some people from the LGBT+ community may not have the confidence to speak to police.
“You can contact me directly for advice and support, or to assist this investigation.”
Posting on X yesterday, the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan said there was “no place for hate in London”, adding he stood with LGBTQI+ Londoners.
