A man has been arrested in connection with a stabbing which happened near an Aberdeen high-rise yesterday.
Officers locked down Rosehill Court around 7.45pm last night, with a large police presence.
A 44-year-old man was found “seriously” injured just outside the 16-storey building, and was taken to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary shortly after.
Pictures seen by the Press and Journal show a man receiving medical care outside the flat block.
A police cordon was seen at the tower block, with an additional two police cars stationed outside and officers patrolling the area.
But now police have confirmed they have arrested a 43-year-old man following the incident.
