Neighbours say they urged a young man not to pull a 'horrible' knife from his wound moments after being stabbed in broad daylight. Greater Manchester Police says a man in his 20s was taken to hospital in a life threatening condition following the incident in Little Lever, Bolton.
It followed an altercation at the end of Booth Road, near the junction with Mytham Road, at around 1pm today (February 12). Witnesses told GMP they saw two men in possession of knives - including one man with a 'Rambo-style hunting knife' - fighting with an unknown number of other men.
One man, in his 20s, suffered serious injuries to his torso and back following the stabbing and was taken to hospital for surgery. Residents living close to the scene told the Manchester Evening News how they urged the man not to open his wound by removing the knife.
