A TEENAGER arrested in connection with a double stabbing in South Ham on Monday has been released under investigation.
Hampshire Constabulary confirmed to the Gazette this afternoon that no charge has yet been brought on the 17-year-old from Basingstoke who was arrested on suspicion of grevious bodily harm with intent.
Officers were called at 3.15pm on Monday, April 26, to reports of two people being assaulted on St Peters Road, South Ham.
On arrival, officers located a 28-year-old man with stab wounds. He was taken to hospital to be treated, his injuries are serious but not considered life threatening.
A 23-year-old woman also had an injury to her hand. She was also treated at hospital but has since been discharged.
Hampshire Constabulary confirmed that police presence on Branton Close shortly after the incident is connected to the same investigation, which is ongoing.
A spokesperson said: "Were you in the area at the time? Perhaps you have CCTV or dash cam footage that could help our investigation?
"We are particularly keen to hear from anyone who has footage showing a boy in a grey tracksuit riding an e-scooter."
Anyone with information is asked to phone 101 with reference 44210158637.
