Hostage-taker surrenders after hours of negotiations
A 19-year-old man is in critical condition after being stabbed in the chest while on Church Street in Liverpool City Centre in the early hours of this morning.
Police have arrested a man following the incident, in which a second 19-year-old man sustained a minor neck injury.
Officers attended the scene after it was reported at 4 am that men had been seen fighting close to River Island on Church Street.
A short time later a 20-year-old man was detained close to McDonald’s on Ranelagh Street.
He has been arrested on suspicion of two counts of Section 18 assault, possession of a bladed article and possession with intent to supply drugs.
