A man’s been airlifted to hospital after being stabbed multiple times in an attack in Salisbury last night.
Emergency services were called to Catherine Street in the city centre at around 8.40pm on Monday following reports of a serious assault.
The victim, a man in his 40s, was taken to Southampton Hospital major trauma centre by air ambulance with a number of puncture wounds.
A 37-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm with intent and is currently in police custody.
Det Sgt Kerry Lawes, from Salisbury CID, said: “We responded swiftly to this incident, made an arrest, and at this stage we are not looking for anyone else in connection with this attack.
“However, the area was busy and we know there will have been people who may have either witnessed the assault itself or who saw something in the aftermath which could assist with our enquiries.
“If you haven’t already spoken to police then please call Salisbury CID on 101, quoting log 312 of today (20/05/19). Alternatively you can call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.”
