A man was stabbed with scissors in Manchester

Police have recovered mobile phone footage after a man was stabbed with scissors in Manchester city Centre shortly after 9.30pm on Tuesday 22 November 2016.

A group of youths went into a fast food restaurant at Piccadilly Gardens but were asked to leave by a staff member, after causing a disturbance.

The group left but then returned, one individual proceeded to kick the door repeatedly and a girl then stabbed the victim in the arm with scissors, before fleeing. The man was taken to hospital where he was treated for a stab wound to his arm.

The main offender is described as a girl around 14-16-years-old, black, with back curly hair.
