Did you see intruders who stabbed man in leg?

Updated on 17th October 2012

Police are appealing to the public for information after a Carrington man was stabbed in his home at the weekend.

The 25-year-old man was attacked after two men forced the door to his flat in Church Drive at around 7.30pm on Monday (15 October 2012).

One of the intruders punched the victim, before the other stabbed him in the thigh with an unknown weapon.

They then left. Nothing is believed to have been stolen in the incident. 

The men were wearing all black, including zipped, hooded tops and gloves. They both wore their hoods up and dark scarves across their faces.

One was over 6ft tall, aged around 30 and of a muscular build, the other was around 5ft 8ins tall and stocky.

The victim was taken to the Queen’s Medical Centre with injuries which were not life threatening. He received stitches and has since been discharged.

Patrols have been increased in the area to provide reassurance to the community.

Witnesses, anyone who remembers any suspicious activity in the vicinity around the time of the attack, or anyone with any information is asked to contact Nottinghamshire Police on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
