National Police are investigating the stabbing of a young British man in a bar in Nueva Andalucía, Marbella. He was stabbed in an arm and leg as he tried to defend himself, according to reports in Diario Sur, and was taken by his friends to the Costa del Sol Hospital by car. He was admitted for treatment.

It happened around 6pm on Wednesday, when for some reason, an argument got started which turned into a fight outside the establishment.

National Police investigations continue and several people who saw what happened were called by the police to give statements during Thursday.

It happened in the same area where a 24 year old was left in a coma after a fight last month, and there were two other cases last weekend in Estepona, including one when a 17 year old was injured after being attacked with a harpoon.
