Three bailed after man, 21, stabbed in neck

A 21-year-old man was stabbed in the neck at around 4.20am following a “dispute” at the junction of Cambridge Street and Division Street, close to Sheffield City Hall.

It is understood that a security guard at the Spar shop in Division Street, who is also an ex-soldier, held his hand over the injured man’s neck while they waited for the emergency services to arrive.

A spokesman for South Yorkshire Police said: “The 21-year-old was taken to the Northern General Hospital where his condition is described as serious.

“The injury is not thought to be life-threatening at this stage.”

Part of Division Street was closed for several hours on Sunday morning, while police investigations continued at the scene.

Anyone with information on the stabbing should call South Yorkshire Police on 101.
