A man will appear in court charged with attempted murder following a knife attack in Cliftonville.
Kent Police was called to Dalby Square on February 11, following a report that an assault had taken place between 4am and 4.45am. The victim sustained injuries consistent with stab wounds and was taken to a London hospital.
Five people were arrested in connection with the incident. One of those was 49-year-old Raymond Wallace of Cliff Terrace in Margate. He has now been charged with attempted murder. He was also charged with possessing an offensive weapon in a public place.
The other four people, two men aged 42 and 53, a woman aged 31 and a teenage girl, have all been released without charge.
Mr Wallace has been remanded in custody and is due before Folkestone Magistrates’ Court today (March 21),
Hopefully the man stabbed will make a full recovery. People shouldn’t take retribution into their own hands no matter what has happened, it should be left for the authorities to deal with.
