Police are searching for a suspect after a man was stabbed in Anfield last night.
Breck Road has been partially closed since 11pm on Monday 22nd December following an apparent attack on a man in his 50s.
The victim received an injury to his arm and is in a stable condition.
Detective Inspector Mike Fletcher said: “We are in the early stages of the investigation to establish the circumstances of what has taken place.
“I would appeal to anyone who was in the vicinity of Breck Road last night and had saw what happened or has any information to come forward and speak to us.
“I also urge people in the area to check your CCTV and dashcam to see if it has captured any footage, no matter how small, as any information may help with the investigation.
“We understand the devastating consequences of carrying a knife and are relentless in our approach to targeting and pursuing criminals.
“The use of knives and any weapons is reckless and will not be tolerated, and can have tragic consequences, not only for the victim and their family but also for the offenders involved.
“There is no place for knives in our communities. I would urge anyone with information to get in touch so we can act on community intelligence or call Crimestoppers anonymously.”
