Bouncer at Vogue nightclub knifed

COPS are appealing for witnesses to come forward after a bouncer was stabbed.

The 27-year-old doorman at Vogue nightclub on Old Kent Road, Walworth, was stabbed in the arm inside the club on April 13 at around 3.30am.

The bouncer was knifed by one of a group of men who, according to Southwark police, are thought to have been smoking inside the club.

DC Torsten Mansson said he was working with the venue to catch the bouncer’s attacker.

The suspect was wearing a striped hooded jumper, a dark baseball cap and a thick silver neck chain.

Police said he was a 5ft 6ins tall light-skinned black man, with short black hair.

He is thought to be in his late teens or early 20s.

The bouncer was hospitalised with non-life-threatening wounds.
