A man has been arrested after a woman was allegedly stabbed multiple times in a house.

The attack is said to have happened in a home on Main Street in Glenluce, Wigtownshire, on Tuesday night.

A 25-year-old woman was taken to the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in Glasgow in a serious condition.

A man, also 25, has been arrested and was due to appear at Stranraer Sheriff Court on Thursday.

Inspector Stewart McColm said "This was quite a contained incident and as such there was no risk to the wider public in the community.

"Enquiries are ongoing in the village and officers will be on patrol to reassure the public in relation to any concerns they might have."
