A man in his 20s was rushed to hospital today after being stabbed in a Peterborough park. Detectives are appealing for information they were called at 1.35pm with reports of a stabbing in Fulbridge Recreation Ground off Fulbridge Road, New England.

The victim, a man in his 20s, was taken to Peterborough City Hospital for treatment for what was initially thought to be life-threatening injuries from a stab wound to his abdomen, however he has since been operated on and has been discharged from hospital.

Detective Inspector Dean Wiffin said: “It is believed the victim was approached by two males who were both wearing dark clothing and had their faces covered – it is not known how old they were.

“I understand this incident is concerning for the local community however I would like to reassure people that we have got officers patrolling the area and we are doing all we can to gather information and find who is responsible.
