However, police have stressed they believe it to be an “isolated” case.

A Norfolk Police spokesman said a short time ago: “Police were called at 4.45pm on Wednesday 9 December to reports a man, aged in his 20s, had been stabbed in the arm in Queens Avenue in King’s Lynn.

“The man was taken to hospital with serious arm injuries where he remains in a stable condition.

“A man, aged in his 20s and from the King’s Lynn area, has been arrested in connection with the incident and remains in police custody at this time.

“Officers believe this is an isolated incident where the suspect and the victim are known to each other and enquiries are ongoing.”

One nearby resident told the Lynn News a large area remains cordoned off this morning.
