Newtownabbey stabbing: Six injured in 'frenzied attack' | |
(about 4 hours later) | |
One of six people hospitalised with stab wounds after a "frenzied attack" in County Antrim has undergone surgery. | |
Details are unclear, but police said they were not looking for anyone other than the six injured people. | |
One woman needed surgery, while two men and a woman remain in hospital in a stable condition, and two people have been treated and discharged. | |
The incident happened in Ballyduff Gardens, Newtownabbey, at about 16:00 GMT on Monday. | |
John McPoland, from the Northern Ireland Ambulance Service, said: "There were two people seriously enough injured for our crews to ask that the medical people be waiting for them on arrival [at hospital]. | |
"There are stab injuries all over different parts of their body, including the chest, back and groin. So it looks like some kind of frenzied attack." | "There are stab injuries all over different parts of their body, including the chest, back and groin.
