DETECTIVES are urging pub goers to help piece together the moments before a man was seriously assaulted.
Enquiries are continuing after a 25-year-old man was attacked in Possilpark on Monday just after midnight.
He left the Ashfield Bar in Hawthorn street at around 12.20am and shortly afterwards was attacked and stabbed.
The man suffered stab wounds and was taken to the City's Royal Infirmary where his condition was described as stable.
Police said the victim had been involved in a disturbance in the pub earlier in the evening but said the motive of the attack was unknown.
Officers are gathering CCTV images but appealed for those who were in the pub that night to come forward.
Detective Constable Shona Beattie said:“This man has suffered serious injuries in an attack – the motive of which is presently unknown.
"We know he was involved in a disturbance earlier in the evening in the Ashfield Bar in Hawthorn Street and I am appealing for anyone who was in the bar to get in touch with us.
"Additionally, if you saw anything outside in the street around the time of the incident, please do pass the details onto police.”
Anyone with information is asked to call officers at Maryhill Police Office on the non-emergency number 101 or call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 where information can be given anonymously.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
