Officers were called to Vauxhall Gardens in Vauxhall Street just after 19:00 following a phone call from the ambulance service.

Paramedics had found a man in the driveway who’d apparently been stabbed multiple times. He was treated at the scene and later taken to hospital where he died just before 20:30.

Shortly afterwards Police say a suspect was identified in a nearby property and following brief negotiations with officers was detained by Firearms Officers and taken into police custody.
