A 19-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder following an incident in Scunthorpe on Wednesday 4 January.

Humberside Police received reports at around 7.45pm that the victim sustained a knife injury on Ancaster Court, Scunthorpe. The victim remains in hospital in a critical condition.

Following enquiries, a man was arrested in connection with the incident on Thursday (5 January), and he remains in custody at this time whilst enquiries continue.

DCI Simon Duffield said: “Understandably, given the nature of this incident, it will be concerning to members of the local community. However, we believe this to be an isolated incident with no wider risk to members of the public.

“There will continue to be a high presence of police in the area whilst our investigations continue, and I would ask anyone with concerns or information to come and talk with our officers.

“If you believe you have any information, please call our non-emergency number 101 quoting log 467 of Wednesday 4 January. Alternatively, if you would prefer to provide information anonymously, you can contact independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.”
