A shopkeeper has recalled the dramatic moment when a man with a stab wound walked into his shop looking for help. Police were called to Trent Road in Sneinton shortly after 2.45pm on Saturday (April 2) after a man was stabbed.
The victim, a man in his 20s, was taken to hospital and his injury is not currently believed to be life-threatening or life-altering. Police subsequently cordoned off the nearby Lifestyle Express convenience shop, at the junction of Trent Road and Sneinton Boulevard, where the shop manager said the stabbed man came in looking for help.
Khalid Mahmood, who manages Lifestyle Express, said he had been "very shocked" as the scene unfolded outside of his shop. "A man had been stabbed and came into the shop looking for help - you could see he was holding his back," said Mr Mahmood.
