4 people have been arrested following a suspected early morning knife attack that took place at a residential address in Freshwater earlier today (Saturday).
As previously reported by Island Echo, officers from Hampshire & Isle of Wight Constabulary were called to the scene just before 06:00 after receiving reports of an assault.
Once at the scene a cordon was erected on the road closed between the junctions with Golden Ridge and The Old Smithy, whilst officers carried out inquiries.
At the scene, 3 men aged 27, 29 and 38, and a 29-year-old woman all from the Isle of Wight were arrested on suspicion of wounding with intent.
A 32-year-old male was treated for injuries to the hand at the scene before being taken to St Mary’s Hospital.
Those arrested remain in custody at this time.




























































































all from the Isle of Wight?
born and bred islanders or imports?
Yes they are all born and bred and parents where too before you start calling them mainland scum
Took the words right out my mouth.
Can’t blame the main landers this time.
why does it matter?
What does it matter?
It matters because there are certain people ( many of whom seem to congregate on IE) who like to lay the blame for the Island’s rising violent crime on “foreign dinghy scum imported by the council, given free homes and living off benefits” (pay attention to the quotes. This is the opinion of people like “Isle of Wighter” and several others, not me).
Another nonce found?
no u dickhead
As if potential murderers are active at 6am, and how can such heinous happenings occur in Freshwater?
At least, being on the island, the occurrence had to have been beautiful. It’s the Jewel of the South.

The guy that got stabbed was a bit of a nonce banging on doors and creating a problem for the neighbours . My son lives close to where it happened .
Surprised the benefit claiming unemployed feral knuckle draggers are up at that hour?!
Probably all been drinking or taken something! These people are all too stupid to have a good time without it ending in violence. This what the beautiful island has to put up with now. Pond life.
