We are appealing for information following a serious assault in Aldershot yesterday evening (Saturday 14 May).

We were called at 9.22pm to an address on Lyndhurst Avenue.

Officers attended and found a 21-year-old man with suspected stab wounds to his arm and abdomen.

The victim was taken to hospital for treatment where he remains today. His injuries are not thought to be life threatening at the current time.

We have arrested a 21-year-old man and a 19-year-old man, both from Aldershot, on suspicion of section 18 grievous bodily harm with intent. They remain in police custody at this time.

We would like to hear from anyone that has information which may assist our enquiries.

Perhaps you were in the area at the time and saw people acting suspiciously, or saw what happened or the aftermath?
