Arrests have been made after a man was reportedly stabbed during a mass brawl in Abbots Langley.

Harrowing footage is circulating online of what appears to show a clash involving at least six people around Summerhouse Way and Parnell Close on Friday evening (April 26).

A Herts Police spokesperson told the Watford Observer yesterday afternoon (April 29) that officers were called to reports of an assault and arrests have been made.

In a fresh update this morning, the force confirmed four men were arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a man suffered a suspected stab wound. His injuries are not life-threatening. 

They have since been bailed pending further enquiries.

Detective Inspector Dan Bhamra, from the Three Rivers Local Crime Unit, said: “I appreciate this will be alarming for the local community. I would like to reassure everyone that this is believed to be an isolated incident and there is not believed to be a wider risk to the public." 

The East of England Ambulance Service has been contacted for information.
