A 27-year-old male has been released on bail following arrest on suspicion of attempted murder after a man was found “bleeding heavily” from a wound in Portadown.
Police were called to Portadown’s Portmore Street shortly after 3.25pm on Wednesday following a report of a man with a knife in the area.
A PSNI spokesperson said officers arrived to find a man in his 30s “bleeding heavily from a wound to his shoulder”.
He was taken to hospital for treatment to his injuries, which are not believed to be life-threatening.
The 27-year-old suspect was arrested in the nearby Deramore Drive area a short time later on suspicion of attempted murder and possession of a blade or point in a public place.
He was released on bail on Thursday pending further police enquiries.
