Police have confirmed that one of the men arrested following alleged stabbings on a St. Saviour estate on Sunday night has been discharged from hospital.

The other man is no longer in intensive care but remains in hospital, officers said.

The two men, who are believed to know each other, both suffered stab wounds that required surgery at the General Hospital.

Both men were arrested on Monday on suspicion of grave and criminal assault and other offences.

Police officers said an "altercation" happened at approximately 20:00 on Sunday at Wellington Park Estate, followed by a second "incident" at 22:30.
