Police treating multiple stabbing as attempted murder

The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) are trying to establish the circumstances of the attack, including exactly where it happened.

Several potential crime scenes are in place on Wednesday in Steelstown Village, Racecourse Road and Cornshell Fields.

Police want to hear from anyone who may have information about the attack.

They particularly want to speak to anyone who was in the Earhart Park/Cornshell Fields areas at around 22:30 GMT who may have information about the assault.

Det Insp Lizzie Ballentine said: “This was a serious incident, a vicious assault, which has left a man seriously injured.

“I want to thank everyone who has, to date, helped with our enquiries, and encourage anyone who has information – no matter how insignificant it might seem to them – to please report it.

“It may prove crucial to our investigation.”
