Man Stabbed In Face In Glasgow Attack
Police hunting a gang of three after a man was stabbed in the face in Glasgow's Dover Street.
Police are hunting a gang of three who stabbed a man
in the face in an unprovoked attack.
The 21-year-old victim was walking in Dover Street,
Glasgow, at about 9.15pm on Saturday when the three
men attacked him.
Police said one of the men stabbed the victim in the
face and they then ran off towards Argyll Street.
The victim was taken to the Queen Elizabeth University
Hospital for treatment and was later released.
The three men police are hunting are said to be Asian
and in their mid twenties.
One is about 5ft 6ins with short dark hair, facial stubble
and slim. He was wearing a grey baseball top with
black sleeves and buttons down the middle.
The second man is 6ft with short black hair, clean
shaven and was wearing a red jumper or jacket.
The third man is 5ft 10ins with receding short black hair
and was wearing a cream long-sleeved top during the
attack.
Detective constable Graham Morrison said: This would
appear to be a totally unprovoked attack which has
resulted in a young man sustaining serious facial
injuries.
We are carrying out door-to-door enquiries and viewing
CCTV in an attempt to identify the men responsible for
this vicious attack.
In the meantime, I urge anyone who either witnessed
the incident or anyone who remembers seeing the three
Asian men hanging around the area either prior to
9.15pm on Saturday or running off afterwards to contact
police immediately.
It is believed that they may have got into a car that
was parked nearby.''
