A 14-year-old boy and a 13-year-old girl have been arrested after a man was stabbed in Nottingham.

It happened on Shelford Rise, just off Carlton Road, in Sneinton at around 5pm yesterday (10 Aug).

The victim - aged in his 40s - is being treated for serious injuries.

The children are being questioned on suspicion of committing grievous bodily harm with intent.

Detective Inspector Kayne Rukas, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: "Our inquiries are at a very early stage, but a man has suffered serious injuries and we are working to understand exactly what has happened.

"We know there will be concern locally, but two arrests have been made, and we currently believe this was an isolated incident with no wider risk.

"Carlton Road will have been busy with passing traffic at this time so we'd like to hear from anyone who spotted anything unusual or has recorded footage they can share with officers."
