-

A man suffered suspected stab injuries after an attempted hit-and-run attack in Sunderland.

Police were called to Corporatio­n Road, in Hendon, and found an injured man. A car had reportedly collided with a wall in an attempt to hit him before he was attacked by the driver.

A 34-year-old man remains under investigat­ion following the tragic death of a Ryhope dad after he suffered serious injuries when a car crashed into a row of garden fences.

Northumbri­a Police are continuing to appeal for anyone with informatio­n to come forward which could help the investigat­ion into the incident which led to the death of Michael Armstrong.

A 34-year-old man remains under investigat­ion after being arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.

Michael, 35, died in hospital last Tuesday after he was a passenger in a crash in Success Road, Philadelph­ia, on Saturday, February 16, at about 11.30pm.

He was found nearby in Ross Lea, Shiney Row, with life-threatenin­g injuries to his abdomen and sadly died on last Tuesday at the RVI. Tributes have been paid to Michael, dad to 17-year-old Rebecca, who has been described as a “lovely lad”.

A spokespers­on for Northumbri­a Police said: “A 34-year-old man remains under investigat­ion, three other people who were arrested have been released with no further action to be taken.

“We’re still appealing for informatio­n, and anyone who is yet to come forward who thinks they may be able to assist the ongoing investigat­ion is asked to do so.”
