Eyewitnesses have spoken of the chaotic scenes after a man was 'slashed' near Piccadilly train station. The drama unfolded shortly before 1:30pm this afternoon.
Armed officers swarmed London Road next to the station after police received reports of a 'fight.' There they found a man who had suffered a 'slash wound' to his hand.
He was treated at the scene by paramedics before being taken to hospital. He has since been arrested on suspicion of assault and is to be questioned in due course.
