Man charged with attempted murder after Park Gate stabbing results in 20-year-old being hospitalised

Police officers closed a section of Hunts Pond Road, in Park Gate, on Saturday evening (November 15) just after 6pm, following reports that a 20-year-old had been stabbed.

The man was rushed to hospital with serious injuries where he remains and the police have confirmed his condition is currently stable.

The stabbing prompted a police investigation which led to the arrest of Luke Foreman, who has now been charged with offences including attempted murder.

It is also believed that the incident may be linked to a robbery at Morrisons in Hunts Pond Road on the same day, which saw alcohol stolen.

The 21-year-old, of no fixed address, has been charged with attempted murder, possession of a knife in a public place and robbery.

He has been remanded to appear at Portsmouth Magistrates Court today (Monday, November 17).
