Police and the London Ambulance Service were called to the scene at the shopping centre yesterday at around 3.30pm after an 18 year-old from Manor Park fell onto a 47-year-old man from Essex who was walking below.

Both were taken to The Royal London Hospital in Whitechapel.

A spokesman from Newham Police said: “Both men are in a stable condition in hospital with non-life threatening injuries.”

Police are still investigating the full circumstances of the incident. No arrests have been made.
