POLICE have said a young man who was stabbed several times in a Chelmsley Wood alleyway is "lucky to be alive."
The 22-year-old was attacked by a large group in the cut-through, just off Crabtree Drive.
He was rushed to hospital with knife wounds and spent several days in intensive care.
Officers have now appealed for anyone with information about the attack, which happened on April 25, to come forward.
Det Con Neil Wilson, from Force CID, is investigating the brutal assault.
"[The victim] suffered multiple serious stab and slash wounds and needed significant medical treatment following the attack last month.
"We know that there was a large group of young men, some on bikes, who surrounded the victim in the area of Crabtree Drive and Glovers Croft before attacking him and fleeing as he lay injured on the ground."
The attack happened following an earlier confrontation between the group and the young man.
Anyone who knows who is responsible should contact the Violent Crime Team at Chelmsley Wood on 101 or speak to Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
