English actress and model Elizabeth Hurley’s 21-year-old nephew has been hospitalised after being stabbed repeatedly in the back. Hurley confirmed the “brutal” attack on her Twitter account, saying it is an “appalling” time for the family.
Miles, a model, suffered numerous stab wounds as he was targeted by a group of men in Nine Elms, south west London, at around 9 pm on Thursday. Scotland Yard said his injuries were not described as life-threatening or life-changing.
“The police and hospital are being fantastic. Thank you for all your messages. It is an appalling time for him and our family. The police will be appealing for witnesses”, said Elizabeth Hurley.
Miles and another 21 year-old man were both stabbed by a group of men who got out of a vehicle in Ascalon Street. “A 21-year-old man (victim 1) was discovered with stab wounds to his back,” said a spokesperson for the Met Police. “Another man, also aged 21 (victim 2), was also found suffering from stab wounds.”
They were both taken by LAS to a south London hospital – victim 1 remains there; his condition is described as not life-threatening or life-changing. Victim 2 has been discharged following treatment. They are believed to have been attacked by a group of males who got out of a vehicle and assaulted them before fleeing the scene.
“A crime scene was put in place. Road closures were also in place but have since been lifted.”The attack is under investigation by detectives from Wandsworth CID but no arrests have been made yet.
Miles Hurley is the son of Elizabeth Hurley’s older sister Kate Curran, 54, and has appeared in photo shoots for Dolce & Gabbana. “His family feared the worst. Fortunately, it seems the knife missed his vital organs,” a source told local media.
