A man in his twenties is in hospital with life-threatening injuries after a stabbing on Conniburrow Boulevard in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire. The incident occurred on the evening of Saturday, February 14, 2026, and the victim remains in a serious condition.
Thames Valley Police deployed armed officers to the area at approximately 6:50 PM after being alerted to the assault by the South Central Ambulance Service. Two boys, aged 15 and 16, were arrested on suspicion of Section 18 grievous bodily harm with intent and remain in police custody.
Lead investigator Detective Inspector Laura Herrington is urging residents and business owners to review their security cameras for evidence. Officers are specifically seeking CCTV, doorbell, or dashcam footage from the Conniburrow area recorded around the time of the attack.
The investigation comes amid a sustained effort by Thames Valley Police to tackle knife crime through Operation Deter. This zero-tolerance initiative recently secured approximately £210,000 in funding to extend youth-focused crime prevention and early intervention work in Milton Keynes through March 2026.
