Police were called to reports of a fight at 11.15pm, and arrested four people for affray. 

It is unclear if the fight happened before or after the car drove into the group.  

The incident is not terrorism-related, with a crime scene established and enquiries continuing.

It is the latest incident in a spate of violence in London, which has seen 76 murders so far this year. 

Last week, a teenage boy was killed and two others injured after a running brawl on Purley high street in south London. 

Diners at a Pizza Express were evacuated from the back door after the fight erupted outside.  

Anyone with information can contact 101.
