Detectives investigating a serious assault in Carlton which left a man critically ill in hospital have charged a suspect.
A man, aged in his 20s, was found with serious injuries in Valley Road at around 10am on Wednesday (11) following reports of a stabbing.
Twenty-four-year-old Imani Rhone, of Byron Court, Sneinton, was last night charged with assault occasioning grievous bodily harm with intent and possession of an offensive weapon in relation to the incident.
He is expected to appear at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court today.
A 24-year-old woman who was arrested on suspicion of assault occasioning grievous bodily harm remains in police custody.
