So, here’s what happened: a woman in her 50s was attacked late Saturday night. The police got the call around 11:30 PM. She’s in the hospital now, and her injuries are serious, possibly life-changing. It’s really concerning.
From what I hear, the attack happened in the A&E department, and it wasn’t with a knife but some kind of sharp instrument. Her friends and coworkers are getting support during this tough time.
They arrested a 37-year-old man right at the scene on suspicion of attempted murder. He’s still in custody, but it’s not clear if he was a patient or not.
The police are on it, and you can see their car parked outside the hospital. They released a statement saying they were called to the hospital for a stabbing incident. They confirmed that a member of the public attacked the nurse.
Detective Sergeant Craig Roters mentioned that this is a serious situation, and they’re thinking of the nurse’s family and colleagues. They’re also increasing police presence in the area to reassure the community.
It’s definitely a shocking event, and if anyone has concerns, they’re encouraged to talk to the police. The NHS trust that runs the hospital has been contacted for more information.
