Detectives from Bedfordshire Police are appealing for witnesses after a teenager was stabbed in the early hours of Tuesday, December 29. 

At approximately 1.50am, police were called to a report that a 17-year-old boy had been stabbed to the head following an altercation with a man in Shakespeare Road, Bedford.

The victim was taken to hospital and his injuries are not believed to be life threatening or life changing.

“We are working to establish the circumstances of this incident and are following up several lines of enquiry.

“We would also like to hear from anyone who may have been in the area at that time and has any dash cam footage or information, which could help us establish who the offender is.”

Anyone with information can contact police through the force’s online reporting centre or by calling 101, quoting reference number 13 of 29 December.
