A Nottinghamshire Police officer has shared how he feared for his life after being stabbed three times by a Nottingham teenager. Sergeant Dan Griffin was seriously injured after a suspect he had stopped to question in the street attacked him with a knife in North Sherwood Street, the Arboretum on April 25, 2022.
Kai Green went on to stab Sgt Griffin three times, two times in the back of his leg and once in the chest, before the officer managed to wrestle his attacker to the ground. More officers arrived to help detain Green, as Sgt Griffin started to feel blood running into his trouser leg.
“A lot of people describe it as like being punched but I knew immediately that I’d been stabbed,” he said.
