THE MAN who was stabbed in Bromsgrove on Monday (February 29) is now in a stable condition and his injuries are now no longer thought to be life-threatening, police have said.

The victim, who is in his 20s, was initially in a critical condition following the incident at 6.54pm in Crossley Walk, Charford, which saw him receive serious wounds to his back.

The attacker approached two men from Villiers Road and an altercation then took place on Crossley Walk.

The man who carried out the attack was white, 5ft 8ins tall and of large build.




He was wearing a checked shirt, jeans and Wellington boots.

Police officers, who have been carrying out house-to-house enquiries and  extra patrols in the area, still want any witnesses or anyone with any information to call them on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.


 

It is thought one of the men may have been walking a tan coloured dog at the time of the attack and it is believed all three men are known to each other.

 

A weapon has been recovered as part of the operation and a 19-year-old man, arrested on suspicion of wounding with intent, has appeared at Redditch Magistrates Court this morning (Wednesday).
