Student stabbed outside school

Three or four masked men attacked the student with knives and clubs before fleeing in a car that was found on fire nearby

A 22-year-old student is in critical condition after being stabbed six times this morning at Københavns Tekniske Skole on Rebslagervej in Nørrebro.

“I can confirm that there has been a stabbing and that a man has been admitted to Rigshospital’s casualty department,” a police spokesperson told Ekstra Bladet. “We are now investigating the case further.”

According to media reports, the victim is a dentistry student who was attacked in the school’s car park by three or four masked assailants who beat him with clubs and stabbed him in different parts of the body.

A burning car found nearby on Bispebjerg Bakke is thought to be the car the assailants fled in.

Police have arrested one individual but it is unclear whether the person was involved in the attack. No details about the victim’s identity have been released.
