There's an appeal for witnesses after a man in Hastings was stabbed by someone who knocked at his front door.
It happened in Rye Road on Tuesday (Oct 11) shortly after 7.15pm.
The 32-year-old local man told police he opened the door too at least two men, one of whom stabbed him.
They then fled the scene and the victim was taken to hospital.

“Please contact Sussex Police online or via 101, quoting serial 1311 of 11/10.”
