A man has been taken to hospital after a stabbing in a Dundee park.
Police were called to Dudhope Park shortly after 11pm on Tuesday following reports a man had been seriously assaulted.
The 39-year-old man was taken to Ninewells Hospital.
No further information has been given regarding his condition.
Locals described seeing a large police cordon on Wednesday morning as officers investigated the incident.
One resident said: “I was out walking the dog, it must have been before seven.
“I saw two officers standing at the park and there was a police car there as well.
“They had taped off the lower bit of the park, it was quite a big bit taped off to be honest.”
Another resident added: “I saw four officers standing by the cordon, this was around 10.30 or 11 in the morning.
“There was a cone on the ground as well. We were still allowed to walk around the park though.
“I asked the officers what it was all about but they wouldn’t tell me any information.”
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “Around 11.05pm on Tuesday police were called to Dudhope Park, Dundee, following the serious assault of a 39-year-old man.
“He was taken to Ninewells Hospital for treatment and inquiries are ongoing.”
