A British man is in Intensive Care after a stabbing incident in Fuengirola on Friday night. The 23 year old, named by Diario Sur as D.S., is reported to have suffered two stab wounds in the back and another in his chest.

It happened on a street near the town’s Rey de España paseo marítimo, and all that is known about the assailant is the brief description the victim was able to give to the bouncer of a nearby nightclub, the Mai Tai, which he managed to reach as he sought help for his injuries. He described his attacker as short and thin, possibly Moroccan, wearing a white hooded jacket.

The British man was rushed to the Costa del Sol Hospital in Marbella, where he remains in a serious condition.
