A passer-by said: “The situation seemed calm, and there were police absolutely everywhere.

“The injured guy seemed more bothered about the fact police were shining a light in his face than that he had been stabbed.

“When I left at about 1pm, the road had been cleared and he was being treated in an ambulance.”

Carver Street is lined with bars and clubs and is popular with revellers on nights out.
