Police are hunting a knifeman who murdered a woman on the street in broad daylight this morning.
The woman, who is yet to be named, was attacked in Wickham Street, Vauxhall, just after 9am.
The killer was seen running away with his clothes covered in blood.
Detectives described him as a dark-skinned black man in his early 30s, 6ft tall and well built.
He was wearing a loose-fitting grey winter woollen hat, beige fleece jacket or jumper and light blue jeans with black lace up boots.
Police warned people not to approach the suspect, but to dial 999 if they see him.
The victim was already dead when paramedics reached her.
