Man left hospitalised after being stabbed outside Xscape in Milton Keynes

    A man has been left requiring hospital treatment after being stabbed while near the Xscape last night (29/8).

    It happened at around 9:05pm, when a group of males were approached by two people that came from the direction of the car park. 

    Police say that one of the men in the group was assaulted by the offenders and sustained stab wounds to his arms.

    Following the attack, the two offenders ran off in the direction of the McDonald's entrance and headed towards the bridge which leads to Fishermead.
