A man has been hauled before the courts following an alleged stabbing in Bromley High Street.
Jordan Wint, 21, has been charged with GBH with intent.
Wint, of Battersby Road, Catford, appeared in custody at Bromley Magistrates’ Court earlier today (February 10).
He has been charged after a man was allegedly knifed in the face by McDonald’s, in the High Street, yesterday (February 9).
There were chaotic scenes outside the fast food restaurant, as workers and shoppers stopped in their tracks to watch events unfold.
Police cordoned off the street in the aftermath of the incident, and McDonald's remained shut yesterday.
Multiple witnesses described seeing blood covering the pavements after the midday altercation.

"We went outside and there was blood on the floor.
"There was lots of blood everywhere, it was quite scary.
"At first I thought someone had been run over."
Neighbouring eatery Benito's Hat was also forced to shut for half an hour, and team leader Rachel Martin added: "Nothing like this has ever happened before.
"It's never happened here, Bromley is usually really quiet."
Staff at Lloyds TSB also locked their doors, with customers inside, as the events were unfolding just yards away.

Bon Marche assistant manager, Elango Kanesamoorthy, added they only realised something was wrong when crowds gathered outside the store.
He said: "It's not something you expect to happen.
"There was that guy with the machete and the bomb scare, and now this.
"It's a bit worrying, you never expect it in Bromley.
"I'm from Lewisham and in Lewisham it makes sense."
