Detectives have charged a man following a double stabbing in Peterborough city centre in the early hours of yesterday morning (Friday).

A 999 call was made just before 2.30am reporting two men had been stabbed in Geneva Street, off Broadway.

Two men, one his 30s and the other in his 40s, were taken to Peterborough City Hospital – one with serious injuries and the other with life-threatening injuries – where they both remain in a stable condition.

A 45-year-old man from Bretton was arrested yesterday morning and has since been charged with two counts of assault causing grievous bodily harm (GBH) with intent and being in possession of a knife in a public place.

He has been remanded in custody to appear at Huntingdon Magistrates’ Court today (Saturday).
