Five teenagers were arrested after a 17-year-old boy was stabbed at a party. Two others were also injured in the incident.
Cops were called to Hounds Gate Friday after 11:40 PM. The boy who was stabbed went to the hospital with serious, but not deadly, injuries. Nottinghamshire Police shared this news.
Police arrested one 18-year-old man and four 17-year-old boys. All five are still in police custody now. Some roads, including Hounds Gate and nearby roads, are still closed while police investigate.
Nottingham Castle closed temporarily Saturday due to the road closures. A detective inspector spoke about the case, believing the stabbing happened during a flat party. They want to know what happened before, during, and after.
Police want to hear from witnesses and are asking if you saw people inside the flat or running away. Drivers with dashcam footage should contact them if they saw any part of the issue.
Police find this violence unacceptable and will bring those responsible to justice. A superintendent stated this incident is unrelated to earlier events this week.
Police will keep an open mind as the previous night’s events are under investigation. They will have a visible presence in the city to reassure people who have concerns.
