Three youths have been arrested and bailed over the death of Seydou Diarrassouba on London's Oxford Street during the Boxing Day sales.

The three - two aged 16 and one aged 20 - were held at separate London police stations and bailed until mid-January.

The 18-year-old was stabbed after a fight began in the Foot Locker sports shop near Bond Street Tube station on Monday.

Later, his family praised a "loving son and brother".

The homes of 20 suspected gang members were raided on Friday to "quell" related tensions, police said. A further 11 individuals have also been arrested.

Police have targeted suspected gang members in Merton, Wandsworth and Southwark.

Mr Diarrassouba's family said in a statement: "A simple shopping trip has turned into a complete nightmare for our whole family.

"Whoever took his life took our backbone away. Seydou kept us upright and now we feel weak as we have lost a very special part of us."
