An attempted murder investigation has been launched after a 29-year-old man was stabbed in Lambhill on Monday night.

The Evening Times previously reported the man was left fighting for his life after he was found with injuries in Kilfinan Street.

He was taken by ambulance to the Glasgow Royal Infirmary where staff describe his condition as critical but stable.

Police have now said the man was stabbed by another man around 10pm on Monday night, and are appealing for information.

The suspect is described as white, 25 to 30 years of age, wearing a blue hooded top and shorts.

Detective Sergeant Larry Dempsey, Maryhill CID, said: “From our enquiries so far we know that the injured man was in Kilfinan St, outside the local convenience store, when a white Ford Fiesta turned into the street and a man and a woman get out.

"When man goes in to the shop, the injured man appears to have a conversation with the woman, described as white, with long dyed blond hair, wearing a pink and orange top and jeans, before she too goes into the shop.

"He then approaches the female driver of the car but is then confronted by the man from the car who then stabs him repeatedly before getting back into the car with the woman and driving off.

“We still have to establish why he was attacked. We don’t know at this time if all are known to each other or if this was as a result of what was said between him and the woman form the car.

“Officers have been carrying out enquiries in the area but are keen to hear from anyone who was in the area – numerous people are seen on CCTV in the street – or indeed anyone with dashcam footage, especially people driving on Balmore Road, which is where the white Ford Fiesta sped off into after the incident.

“Whatever the reason for this attack, a man is critical in hospital and it is imperative we find the two people involved.
