Police are appealing for public assistance as as part of investigations into a stabbing during a home invasion in Jesmond earlier this year.
About 10.30pm on July 15, emergency services were called to a
unit on Blue Gum Road to find a 29-year-old man with multiple stab wounds.
He was taken to John Hunter Hospital for treatment and has since been released.
As investigations continue, detectives are hoping to speak to a man who may
be able to assist with their inquiries.
He’s described as being of Caucasian appearance, between 170cm and 175cm
tall, with a stocky build, wearing dark clothing and had his face covered.
It’s believed the man left in a vehicle, described only as a light coloured
four-door sedan which was waiting nearby.
Anyone who may have seen or heard anything suspicious between 10pm and 11pm on Tuesday 15 July, or who may have nearby dashcam or CCTV footage is urged to contact Newcastle Police or Crime Stoppers.
