Four men have been found guilty of attempted murder after a man was stabbed more than 15 times around his heart, lung and liver in a “frenzied” knife attack.

The victim only survived after doctors and paramedics from London’s Air Ambulance performed emergency life-saving surgery in the street.

The 29-year-old had visited Emerald supermarket in Staines Road, Feltham, at 1.30am on June 14 last year when the four defendants attacked him.

He was punched to the ground before being stabbed more than 15 times, with some of the wounds penetrating his heart, lung and liver.

The attackers then fled in a waiting car and police said the attack appears to have been motivated by a previous dispute.
