The victim was rushed to hospital from Elthorne Park at around 9pm last night (November 3) and is in hospital in an unknown condition.
It comes just nine days after a stabbing less than 500 metres away.
Pamela, who moved to the area from Holloway Road just over a year ago, said: “There’s just so much crime everywhere.

“No one seems to have any respect for people’s belongings or people.
“I’ve only recently moved here and although I was living in Holloway, it seems even worse here.”
There have been no arrests following the stabbing.
Nine days before on October 25, a stabbing on Sunnyside Road just outside Elthorne Park left a 22-year-old with life-changing injuries.
A 15-year-old was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, according to the latest police update.
Pamela describes stories that “she knows to be true” of drugs, stabbings and murders, occasionally facing abuse herself in the area.
She said: “I just feel like the world’s gone mad, but this country’s gone mad.”

For Pamela, it was the first time she had been confronted face-to-face by a crime scene.
She said: “That couldn’t be more on my doorstep, could it?
“This is somewhere I walk through to get the bus. I think especially as a woman, I feel even more vulnerable.
“But I feel even men are vulnerable because nobody’s safe anymore.”
Ally, from Friern Barnet, volunteers at the Philip Noel-Baker Peace Garden which adjoins the crime scene.
He said: “I was just wondering what was happening, I was just going to go through but I can’t.
“It’s a bit startling seeing this. I don’t feel like anyone is safe anymore.”
The police cordon contains two white and yellow forensic tents, with a large area of the park surrounded by police tape.
Part of the cordon adjoins a children’s playground, and football pitches where a group kicked around a ball.
Elthorne Park is an open space without gates and is accessible at night time.
