British pensioner stabbed in the street in Estepona

National Police are investigating an assault on a 70 year old British pensioner who was attacked with a knife in the street in Estepona.

It happened last Friday night and it is thought that the attacker had the intention of robbing the man. However sources close to the case say the pensioner fought back and the attacker then drew a knife and injured his victim in the chest and arms. Diario Sur reports that the injuries are not serious.

After the attack the Briton was taken to the Costa del Sol hospital where he was treated and allowed home some hours later.

Just a few hours before there was a similar attack in Málaga City which left the victim in a serious condition in the Carlos Haya hospital after he had been stabbed in a lung. It’s not thought the two cases are related.
