A man has been arrested after a Christmas Day attack which left a man in hospital with a serious stab wound.

It comes after police were called to an area near Oswald Road in Dover at 2.18pm, where the victim had suffered a serious stab-like wound to his abdomen.

He was taken to a London hospital for treatment where he remains in a stable condition.

A 45-year-old man, of no fixed address, was arrested today in connection with the assault and remains in custody.

Enquiries are ongoing.
