Three men have been arrested following a stabbing in Nottinghamshire.

Officers were called at around 22:35 BST on Monday by paramedics treating a man in the car park at Morrisons in King's Road, Newark.

The victim, in his 20s, was taken to hospital with injuries which are not believed to be life-threatening, police said.

Three 18-year-old men were detained, two on suspicion of committing grievous bodily harm with intent and a third on suspicion of assisting an offender.

All three, from the Newark area, remain in police custody.

Police said they also recovered a knife.

"Likewise there may be people who have recorded dashcam or other footage which could assist officers with their inquiries."
