A man has been taken to hospital for treatment to a hand injury amid reports of a midnight stabbing in Dundee.
Police responded to calls of a 'disturbance' at Progress Way in the Hilltown area of the city at around 12.30am on Tuesday, February 1.

Residents of the area added that they heard screaming and shouting at the time of the incident and saw an ambulance at the scene.
