A “gentle giant” rugby player who was stabbed to death in a knife frenzy outside a nightclub has been described as “one of the nicest guys around”.
Michael Allen, 36, was killed a stabbing that saw seven others injured near the Eclipse Nightclub in Cornwall at around 3.15am on Sunday (April 30).
Five people have since been released and two remain in hospital as they recover from surgery following the attack. They are not believed to be in life-threatening conditions.
