A man is fighting for life after a late night attack in a high street in south-west London.
The man was discovered in the early hours of Monday morning by a member of the public outside stationary shop Ryman in Sutton High Street.
Paramedics from the London Ambulance Service attended the scene and called the Met Police at 12.38am.
The man, who had suffered a head injury, was rushed to hospital.
A police spokesman said: "We were called to an injured male found by a member of the public next to a bench opposite Ryman, the stationery shop.
"His injuries are described as life threatening. Police are investigating."
An LAS spokeswoman added: “We treated a man at the scene for a head injury and took him as a priority to a major trauma centre in south London.”
A police cordon was put in place and stores in the area reportedly ceased trading until about 10am.
