Northern Ireland police said on Tuesday they had arrested a man following a "stabbing incident" in Belfast, with graphic online video prompting widespread condemnation and protest calls from UK far-right figures.
The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) said the arrested man was in his 30s, believed to be Somalian, and had been detained on suspicion of attempted murder following the "serious assault involving a knife."
The force said a man in his 40s was in hospital with serious injuries to his face, neck and back following the incident shortly after 10:30 pm on Monday.
