A murder investigation has been launched after the death of an 18-year-old woman in Abbey Wood.

Police were called by London Ambulance Service to a seriously injured woman at a property in Sewell Road in the early hours of April 15.

The woman, who has been named as Natasha Hill, was pronounced dead at the scene.

A post-mortem examination gave a preliminary cause of death as head injuries and the death was treated as unexplained.

After further enquiries it is now being treated as murder.

A 32-year-old man arrested at the scene on April 15 on suspicion of murder was bailed to mid-July and has since been re-bailed to October.

Police say the suspect and the victim were known to each other.
