A second teen has been injured after a stabbing incident in Perth city centre on Saturday night.
A 17-year-old man was traced following Saturday night’s incident on South Methven Street, but his injuries did not require further medical attention.
It comes after an 18-year-old man was stabbed in the city centre and taken to Perth Royal Infirmary.
His condition was described as serious but non-life-threatening.
An eyewitness at the scene described seeing multiple emergency service vehicles.
He said: “Police were everywhere and very quickly taped off South Methven Street.
“I also saw one officer standing outside a block of flats where a fatal stabbing happened earlier this year.
“There were also three police vehicles and an ambulance parked on Kinnoull Street in the city centre at around the same time.”
